Y73.2: Gastroenterology and urology devices associated with adverse incidents : prosthetic and other implants, materials and accessory devices

The medical condition referred to by the ICD-10 code Y73.2 involves incidents adverse to the patient's health that are associated with certain gastroenterology and urology devices. Specifically, these incidents relate to prosthetic components, other medical implants, associated materials, and accessory devices. Adverse incidents could include complications, unexpected side effects, or device malfunctioning. The condition commonly presents when the medical device or implant that was expected to aid in the diagnosis, treatment, or health management of gastro-intestinal or urological conditions doesn't perform as expected. This may lead to a variety of symptoms, depending on the specific device or material involved and its intended function. Consequences can range from minimal discomfort to severe health risks that could potentially require further medical interventions.
