S37: Injury of urinary and pelvic organs
S37.8: Injury of other pelvic organs
Injury of other pelvic organs refers to damage sustained by various anatomical structures located within the pelvic region that are not explicitly listed under other codes. This can include the bladder, rectum, or other structures such as ligaments, muscles, and blood vessels. The injury can result from various causes like trauma, surgical complications, or pathological conditions. The presenting symptoms will largely depend on the specific organ injured but may include pain in the lower abdomen, difficulty in urination or defecation, internal bleeding, or other related complications. The progression of these conditions is largely dependent on the severity and nature of the injury, with some conditions resolving promptly with appropriate care, while others could potentially lead to long-term complications.
