Y73.3: Gastroenterology and urology devices associated with adverse incidents : surgical instruments, materials and devices (including sutures)

The condition coded as Y73.3 in ICD-10 by WHO falls under the category of adverse incidents related to gastroenterology and urology devices, particularly focusing on surgical instruments, materials, and devices including sutures. This can occur when the surgical devices used for digestive system (gastroenterology) or urinary system (urology) procedures cause unintended problems or complications. These incidents can occur during or after the surgery, and can depend on numerous factors such as the design of device, how it was used, patient's response to the device, or due to manufacturing issues. Varying in severity, the adverse incidents can include infections, injuries, inflammation, device malfunction, or unfavorable reactions to materials used in the devices. It's important to note that the symptoms and specifics of these incidents can differ substantially depending on the surgical procedure and type of device associated.
