2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H95.192 – Other disorders following mastoidectomy, left ear

What it is

H95.192 identifies a non-specific disorder that occurs after mastoidectomy in the left ear. Use it when the record documents a postoperative ear complication or residual problem, but no more specific code fits.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. The chart may describe persistent ear symptoms, postoperative abnormal findings, or other complications after mastoid surgery involving the left ear.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider clearly links the condition to a prior mastoidectomy on the left side and the problem is not otherwise classified. It is appropriate for postoperative disorders, residual issues, or unspecified complications documented after surgery. Check documentation if the laterality or postoperative relationship is unclear.

Do not use for

Do not use it for routine postoperative follow-up without a complication. Also avoid it when a more specific postprocedural diagnosis, active infection, or unrelated ear disorder is documented.

Coding tip

Confirm the postoperative relationship and left-ear laterality before assigning H95.192.
