Social Security disability for congenital genitourinary: Blue Book listing 106.07

Listing 106.07 is the SSA Blue Book criteria SSA uses for congenital genitourinary childhood disability claims. Meeting it at step 3 of the disability evaluation approves the claim without further analysis of past work or other jobs in the national economy. This page covers what SSA looks for, the medical evidence the criteria require, and what happens if your records don't quite match.

SSA listing text and criteria

Congenital genitourinary disorder (see 106.00C4 ) requiring urologic surgical procedures at least three times in a consecutive 12-month period, with at least 30 days between procedures. Consider under a disability for 1 year following the date of the last surgery; thereafter, evaluate the residual impairment. Back to Top

This listing has no lettered subsections. The diagnosis itself, supported by the medical evidence described in the body-system overview, is what SSA evaluates.

Where claims under 106.07 usually fail

One pitfall is having fewer than three urologic surgical procedures, even if multiple hospital visits occurred. Another pitfall is the timing between procedures, because the listing requires at least 30 days between surgeries within that consecutive 12-month span. A further pitfall is relying on the congenital diagnosis label alone without documentation that the surgeries were urologic procedures (not other types of care). Lastly, some cases miss because the surgery dates do not clearly form a consecutive 12-month period.

Medical evidence that strengthens this claim

Medical records should clearly show the congenital genitourinary disorder and include urologic surgery records with procedure dates. Operative reports and treatment records that confirm the procedures and their timing are central, since the criteria depend on at least three consecutive 12-month urologic surgical procedures with at least 30 days between them. The body-system requirements also expect documentation of signs, symptoms, and laboratory findings of chronic kidney disease when genitourinary disorders result in CKD, using clinical examination reports and treatment response records; laboratory findings such as serum creatinine or serum albumin may document kidney function, and eGFR may also be considered.

What happens if your records do not meet this listing

If the required surgery pattern is not met, approval for this listing would not be based on this specific threshold. SSA can still consider the condition based on residual impairment after the period tied to the last surgery, and generally the evaluation can proceed using remaining functional limits rather than the exact surgery count rule. If the case does involve chronic kidney disease, SSA would still need evidence of signs, symptoms, and laboratory findings of CKD, including treatment records and response to treatment.

Work activity and the SGA gate for this condition

For a child claim, the key gate is whether the congenital genitourinary disorder required urologic surgical procedures at least three times in a consecutive 12-month period with at least 30 days between procedures (Code 106.07). After approval under this listing, SSA considers the child disabled for 1 year following the date of the last surgery, and thereafter evaluates the residual impairment instead of using the same surgery-count rule. If the condition results in chronic kidney disease, SSA evaluation also depends on evidence of CKD signs, symptoms, and laboratory findings over time, including clinical exams, treatment records, and response to treatment, with serum creatinine/serum albumin and eGFR potentially relevant.
