Corpus luteum cyst of right ovary
ICD-10 N83.11 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of corpus luteum cyst of right ovary.
A corpus luteum cyst is a fluid-filled sac that forms on the ovary after an egg has been released during ovulation. In the case of N83.11, the cyst is specifically located on the right ovary. These cysts are typically benign and often resolve on their own without treatment. However, they can sometimes cause symptoms such as pelvic pain, irregular menstrual cycles, or complications like rupture or hemorrhage. The presence of a corpus luteum cyst can be associated with hormonal imbalances and may complicate conditions such as endometriosis or ovarian disorders. It is essential for healthcare providers to differentiate between a corpus luteum cyst and other ovarian masses, such as dermoid cysts or neoplasms, through imaging studies and clinical evaluation. Accurate diagnosis and coding are crucial for appropriate management and treatment planning.
Detailed patient history, imaging results, and treatment plans.
Management of pelvic pain, evaluation of ovarian masses, and follow-up of cyst resolution.
Ensure clear documentation of the cyst's characteristics and any associated symptoms.
Imaging reports detailing the size, location, and characteristics of the cyst.
Ultrasound evaluations of suspected ovarian cysts.
Radiologists should provide clear descriptions to aid in accurate coding.
Used when a corpus luteum cyst requires surgical intervention due to complications.
Operative reports detailing the procedure and findings.
Gynecologists should ensure accurate coding based on the surgical approach and findings.
A corpus luteum cyst specifically forms after ovulation and is typically benign, while other cysts, such as dermoid cysts or endometriomas, have different origins and may have different clinical implications.
