ICD-10 Code A18.14 – Tuberculosis of prostate (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Tuberculosis of prostate is A18.14.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code A18.14 – Tuberculosis of prostate

What it is

A18.14 identifies tuberculosis infection involving the prostate gland. Use it when documentation confirms prostatic tuberculosis, usually as part of extrapulmonary Mycobacterium tuberculosis disease.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Reported findings may include urinary symptoms, pelvic discomfort, or evidence of genitourinary tuberculosis, but diagnosis should be supported by provider confirmation.

When to use this code

Use A18.14 when the record specifically states tuberculosis of the prostate or prostatic TB. It may appear with other genitourinary or systemic tuberculosis diagnoses when the prostate is documented as involved. If the site is not clearly identified, check documentation before coding.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for nonspecific urinary tract infection, prostatitis, or suspected tuberculosis without confirmation. If the documentation only says “TB” or “genitourinary TB” without prostate involvement, check documentation.

Coding tip

Code the documented anatomic site exactly; tuberculosis codes are site-specific and should match the provider’s stated location.
