N50.1: Vascular disorders of male genital organs

There has been a change to the blood vessels of your genital organs.

The male genital organs include the testicles and the penis. The testicles are located outside the body, and are covered by skin. That is the scrotum. But there are also other smaller glands and various other tissues that are part of the genitals.

A blood clot may have formed in your blood vessel, or blood may have leaked from it. There may also have been a buildup of blood in your scrotum.

The changes to the blood vessels can cause a number of different symptoms. These include, for example, pain.

  • G: Confirmed diagnosis
  • V: Tentative diagnosis
  • Z: Condition after
  • A: Excluded diagnosis
