Pain due to genitourinary prosth dev/grft, subs

Pain due to genitourinary prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, subsequent encounter

AIClinical Context

Clinical Description

This code signifies pain experienced by a patient due to the presence of an artificial device, implant, or graft within their genitourinary system. This pain is a direct consequence of the prosthetic material and is being evaluated or treated during a follow-up visit.

When to Use

Apply this code when a patient presents for ongoing management of pain directly attributable to a genitourinary prosthetic device, such as a penile implant, artificial urinary sphincter, or bladder mesh, after the initial treatment phase. This includes follow-up appointments for medication adjustments, physical therapy, or further diagnostic workup related to the pain.

Coding Tips

Always use in conjunction with a code specifying the type of genitourinary prosthetic device.
Ensure documentation clearly links the pain to the presence of the device and indicates a subsequent encounter.
Distinguish from pain due to infection (T83.51X-) or mechanical complications (T83.2XX-, T83.3XX-) of the device.
