ICD-10 Code A54.23 – Gonococcal infection of other male genital organs (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Gonococcal infection of other male genital organs is A54.23.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code A54.23 – Gonococcal infection of other male genital organs

What it is

This code identifies a gonococcal infection affecting male genital organs other than the urethra, prostate, or testis. Use it when documentation specifies gonorrhea in another male genital site.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Findings may include local pain, swelling, tenderness, or discharge at the involved genital site, with gonococcal infection confirmed or strongly suspected by the clinician.

When to use this code

Use A54.23 when the provider documents gonococcal infection in an other specified male genital organ and does not identify a more specific male genital site. This supports coding when the infection is localized outside the usual urethral or testicular categories. Check documentation if the record only says “gonorrhea” without anatomic detail.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for gonococcal urethritis, prostatitis, orchitis, or epididymitis, which have separate codes. Also avoid it when the record does not clearly identify a male genital organ site.

Coding tip

Confirm the exact anatomic site in the provider note before assigning A54.23.
