Code Description

ICD-10 N83.41 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of prolapse and hernia of right ovary and fallopian tube.

Key Diagnostic Point:

Prolapse and hernia of the right ovary and fallopian tube is a condition characterized by the abnormal displacement of these reproductive structures from their normal anatomical position. This condition can occur due to various factors, including pelvic floor weakness, trauma, or surgical complications. In women, the right ovary and fallopian tube may descend into the pelvic cavity or protrude through the vaginal canal, leading to symptoms such as pelvic pain, discomfort during intercourse, and urinary or bowel dysfunction. The presence of endometriosis can complicate this condition, as ectopic endometrial tissue may contribute to adhesions and further displacement of the ovary and fallopian tube. Additionally, female genital prolapse can coexist with hernias, necessitating a comprehensive evaluation and management approach. Diagnosis typically involves a thorough pelvic examination, imaging studies, and possibly laparoscopy to assess the extent of the prolapse and any associated conditions, such as ovarian cysts or polyps. Treatment options may include pelvic floor rehabilitation, surgical intervention, or hormonal therapy, depending on the severity of the prolapse and the patient's overall health status.

Code Complexity Analysis

Complexity Rating: Medium

Medium Complexity

Complexity Factors

  • Differentiating between prolapse and hernia versus other ovarian disorders.
  • Co-occurrence with endometriosis and its impact on treatment.
  • Variability in presentation and symptoms among patients.
  • Need for detailed documentation of anatomical findings.

Audit Risk Factors

  • Inadequate documentation of symptoms and clinical findings.
  • Failure to specify the side of the prolapse or hernia.
  • Misclassification of the condition as a simple ovarian cyst.
  • Lack of clarity regarding associated conditions like endometriosis.
