T83.591Infection and inflammatory reaction due to implanted urinary sphincter

T83.591 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for infection and inflammatory reaction due to implanted urinary sphincter. It belongs to category T83 (complications of genitourinary prosthetic devices, implants and grafts), block T80-T88 (complications of surgical and medical care, not elsewhere classified) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within T83.59 (infection and inflammatory reaction due to prosthetic device, implant and graft in urinary system), T83.591 is specifically for infection and inflammatory reaction due to implanted urinary sphincter. Related codes cover implanted urinary neurostimulation device (T83.590), indwelling ureteral stent (T83.592), other urinary stents (T83.593) and other prosthetic device, implant and graft in urinary system (T83.598).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

It was added in FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.
