Displacement of implanted penile prosthesis, subs

This code signifies a dislodgement or shift in the position of a previously implanted penile prosthesis. This displacement can lead to pain, malfunction of the device, or discomfort for the patient. It indicates that the patient is presenting for follow-up care related to this specific complication.

This code is appropriate for subsequent encounters where a patient is being evaluated or treated for a displaced penile implant. This includes office visits, hospital admissions, or outpatient procedures addressing the dislodgement. It would be used after the initial treatment of the displacement has begun.

• Always assign a secondary code to specify the type of penile prosthesis (e.g., Z95.820 for penile implant).
• Ensure the encounter is not an initial treatment for the displacement, as this code is for subsequent encounters.
• Consider additional codes for any associated symptoms or complications, such as pain (R10.xx) or infection (T83.51x).
