Displacement of graft of urinary organ, initial encounter

This code signifies that a transplanted organ within the urinary system has shifted from its intended position. This displacement can compromise the graft's function and may necessitate medical or surgical intervention. It specifically refers to the initial presentation of this complication.

Apply this code when a patient presents with symptoms or imaging findings indicating that a previously implanted kidney, bladder, or other urinary organ graft has moved. This is appropriate for the first time this displacement is documented and treated.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "displacement" of the graft, not just a malfunction or rejection.
• Verify the encounter is the initial one for this specific displacement; subsequent encounters would use a different seventh character.
• Confirm the affected organ is part of the urinary system (e.g., kidney, bladder, ureter).
