Other noninflammatory disorders of ovary, fallopian tube and broad ligament
ICD-10 N83.8 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of other noninflammatory disorders of ovary, fallopian tube and broad ligament.
N83.8 encompasses a variety of noninflammatory disorders affecting the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and broad ligament. This includes conditions such as endometriosis, which is characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, leading to pain and potential fertility issues. Female genital prolapse, another condition under this code, occurs when pelvic organs descend due to weakened pelvic support structures, often resulting in urinary or bowel dysfunction. Fistulas, abnormal connections between organs, can also be classified here, particularly those involving the female reproductive tract. Additionally, ovarian disorders such as cysts or tumors, and polyps within the female genital tract, which may cause abnormal bleeding or other symptoms, are included. Accurate coding requires a thorough understanding of these conditions, their presentations, and their implications for patient management.
