S30-S39: Injuries to the abdomen, lower back, lumbar spine and pelvis
S37: Injury of urinary and pelvic organs
The S37 category encompasses injuries of the urinary and pelvic organs. Typically, these injuries occur as a result of trauma or accidents, such as falls, car collisions, or sports injuries, but they can also emerge from surgical procedures or violent acts. Common symptoms may vary depending on the specific organ injured but can include pain in the lower back or abdomen, blood in the urine, difficulty urinating, and urinary incontinence. Progression of these conditions can lead to serious complications or even life-threatening situations, particularly if not promptly managed. The systems primarily affected by these conditions are the urinary system, which involves organs like the kidneys, bladder, and urethra, and the pelvic organs, such as the uterus in females and prostate in males.
