T83.712Erosion of implanted urethral mesh to surrounding organ or tissue

T83.712 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for erosion of implanted urethral mesh to surrounding organ or tissue. 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 T83.71 (erosion of implanted mesh and other prosthetic materials to surrounding organ or tissue), T83.712 is specifically for erosion of implanted urethral mesh to surrounding organ or tissue. Related codes cover implanted vaginal mesh to surrounding organ or tissue (T83.711), implanted urethral bulking agent to surrounding organ or tissue (T83.713), implanted ureteral bulking agent to surrounding organ or tissue (T83.714), other implanted mesh to organ or tissue (T83.718) and other prosthetic materials to surrounding organ or tissue (T83.719).

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.
