T83.728Exposure of other implanted mesh into organ or tissue

T83.728 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for exposure of other implanted mesh into 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 T83.72, choose T83.728 (other implanted mesh into organ or tissue) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: implanted vaginal mesh into vagina (T83.721), implanted urethral mesh into urethra (T83.722), implanted urethral bulking agent into urethra (T83.723), implanted ureteral bulking agent into ureter (T83.724) and other prosthetic materials into organ or tissue (T83.729).

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 has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015, and changed in FY2017 (title revised).
