Postproc hematoma of a GU sys org following other procedure

This code describes a collection of blood (hematoma) that forms within or around an organ or structure of the genitourinary system after a surgical or diagnostic procedure, excluding those specifically involving the prostate. It signifies a complication directly related to the intervention, rather than a spontaneous event.

Use this code when documentation clearly indicates a hematoma developed in a genitourinary organ (e.g., kidney, bladder, ureter, urethra, testes, ovaries, uterus) as a direct consequence of a recent surgical, endoscopic, or interventional procedure. The "other procedure" qualifier means it's not a prostate-specific procedure.

• Always sequence this code after the code for the underlying genitourinary procedure that caused the hematoma, if applicable.
• Distinguish from N99.840 (postprocedural hematoma of a genitourinary system organ or structure following a prostate procedure) and N99.842 (postprocedural hematoma of a genitourinary system organ or structure following a genitourinary procedure).
• Ensure documentation specifies the genitourinary organ involved and explicitly links the hematoma to the preceding procedure.
