Noninflammatory disorder of ovary, fallopian tube and broad ligament, unspecified
ICD-10 N83.9 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of noninflammatory disorder of ovary, fallopian tube and broad ligament, unspecified.
N83.9 refers to a noninflammatory disorder affecting the ovary, fallopian tube, and broad ligament, where the specific nature of the disorder is not clearly defined. This code encompasses a variety of conditions that may not involve inflammation but can still lead to significant reproductive health issues. Common conditions associated with this code include endometriosis, which is characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, leading to pain and potential fertility issues. Female genital prolapse, where pelvic organs descend due to weakened pelvic support structures, may also be coded under this classification. Additionally, fistulas, which are abnormal connections between organs, can occur in the female reproductive tract. Ovarian disorders such as cysts or tumors, as well as polyps in the female genital tract, may also fall under this code. Accurate coding requires a thorough understanding of the patient's clinical presentation and the absence of inflammatory processes.
Detailed clinical notes outlining the patient's symptoms, diagnostic tests performed, and treatment plans.
Patients presenting with pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, or infertility evaluations.
Ensure that all relevant imaging and lab results are included in the documentation to support the diagnosis.
Comprehensive evaluation reports including hormonal assessments and imaging studies.
Patients with suspected endometriosis or ovarian dysfunction seeking fertility treatment.
Document the impact of the disorder on fertility and any interventions planned.
Used for diagnostic evaluation of suspected ovarian disorders.
Operative report detailing findings and procedures performed.
Ensure that the indication for surgery aligns with the diagnosis coded.
N83.9 should be used when a patient presents with a noninflammatory disorder of the ovary, fallopian tube, or broad ligament, and the specific nature of the disorder is not documented.
