Other and unspecified disorders of male genital organs (N50)
The ICD-10 code N50 series covers various other and unspecified disorders of male genital organs, including conditions affecting the testis, epididymis, scrotum, and associated structures. These codes are used to classify specific diagnoses such as testicular atrophy, vascular disorders, cysts, pain, and other less common male genital conditions.
This section includes N50.0 for atrophy of testis, which covers terms like bilateral or androgen-induced testicular atrophy. N50.1 captures a range of vascular disorders such as thrombosis, hemorrhage, or infarction affecting the testes and related tissues. For cystic formations, N50.3 describes cysts of the epididymis or testis. The code N50.81 and its subdivisions focus on testicular pain, specifying right, left, or unspecified sides. N50.82 addresses scrotal pain. N50.89 covers other specified disorders, including masses, ulcerations, or various structural abnormalities linked to male genital organs, while N50.9 is reserved for unspecified or unclear male genital disorders. Medical coders use these codes when documenting specific male reproductive system conditions not included elsewhere, ensuring accurate classification and clarity in records and billing.

Instructional Notations
Type 2 Excludes
A type 2 excludes note represents "Not included here". An excludes2 note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition represented by the code, but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When an Excludes2 note appears under a code, it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together, when appropriate.
