T19.9: Foreign body in genitourinary tract, part unspecified

You have one or more foreign bodies in the area of your urinary organs and genital organs.

The urinary organs include organs that form urine or excrete it from the body. The urethra channels the urine outward from the bladder. The penis, for example, is one of the male genital organs. The vagina, for example, is one of the female genital organs.

If someone has a foreign body in the area of their urinary organs and genital organs, there can be various symptoms. The area affected may be painful, for example. If a foreign body stays in the body for a long time, inflammation and fever may occur.

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