ICD-10 Code A54.2 – Gonococcal pelviperitonitis and other gonococcal genitourinary infection (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code A54.2 – Gonococcal pelviperitonitis and other gonococcal genitourinary infection
What it is
A54.2 identifies gonococcal infection involving the female pelvic peritoneum or other genitourinary sites. Use it when Neisseria gonorrhoeae is documented as the cause of this pelvic or urinary tract infection.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Findings may include pelvic pain, lower abdominal tenderness, abnormal genital or urinary symptoms, and evidence of gonococcal infection affecting the genitourinary tract.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents gonococcal pelviperitonitis or another gonococcal genitourinary infection, and the site is within the pelvis or urinary/genital tract. It may apply when the infection is confirmed, suspected, or treated as gonococcal in the record, depending on coding rules.
Do not use for
Do not use A54.2 for nongonococcal pelvic inflammatory disease or for gonococcal infections at unrelated sites. Check documentation if the organism is not specified or if the condition is better described by another gonococcal code.
Coding tip
Code the documented gonococcal site precisely, and verify whether the record supports pelvic peritoneal or other genitourinary involvement.
