Y83: Surgical operation and other surgical procedures as the cause of abnormal reaction of the patient, or of later complication, without mention of misadventure at the time of the procedure

The Y83 code groups conditions arising from an abnormal reaction by a patient to a surgical operation or other surgical procedures. This abnormal reaction, or later complication, occurs without any mention of an accident or inadvertent error during the procedure itself. This group of conditions may be attributed to a variety of factors, such as individual patient susceptibility, underlying health conditions, or the body's reaction to the procedure. Symptoms and disease progression may vary significantly from patient to patient due to the wide range of involved factors, affecting different body systems. Some patients may experience pain, swelling, or fever, while others might develop complications related to specific surgeries like infections, organ damage, or blood clots. These conditions are generally not transmittable as they are specific to the individual who underwent the surgical procedure. The outcomes can range from minor and manageable complications to serious health concerns.
