About N99.11

N99.11 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for postprocedural urethral stricture, male. It belongs to category N99 (intraoperative and postprocedural complications and disorders of genitourinary system, not elsewhere classified), block N99 (intraoperative and postprocedural complications and disorders of genitourinary system, not elsewhere classified) and chapter 14 (diseases of the genitourinary system). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 7 subcodes must be used instead.

Within N99.1 (postprocedural urethral stricture), N99.11 is specifically for postprocedural urethral stricture, male. Related codes cover female (N99.12).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: N99.110 (meatal), N99.111 (male), N99.112 (male), N99.113 (male), N99.114 (unspecified), N99.115 (stricture) and N99.116 (overlapping sites).

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
