Maternal care for benign tumor of corpus uteri, unspecified trimester
ICD-10 O34.10 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of maternal care for benign tumor of corpus uteri, unspecified trimester.
O34.10 refers to maternal care for benign tumors located in the corpus uteri during pregnancy, without specification of the trimester. These tumors, often referred to as uterine leiomyomas or fibroids, can impact pregnancy outcomes depending on their size, location, and the presence of any associated complications. While many women with benign tumors can have healthy pregnancies, the presence of these tumors may necessitate careful monitoring and management to prevent complications such as preterm labor, placental abruption, or obstructed labor, particularly in cases of previous cesarean deliveries or uterine scarring. The management of these conditions requires a multidisciplinary approach, often involving obstetricians and maternal-fetal medicine specialists, to ensure both maternal and fetal health are prioritized throughout the pregnancy.
Detailed documentation of the tumor's size, location, and any symptoms experienced by the patient, along with a thorough obstetric history.
Management of a pregnant patient with a known history of uterine fibroids presenting for routine prenatal care.
Consideration of the potential for complications such as obstructed labor or placental issues, especially in patients with a history of cesarean delivery.
Comprehensive records of maternal-fetal assessments, including ultrasound findings and any interventions planned or performed.
High-risk pregnancies involving large fibroids that may impact fetal positioning or maternal health.
Close monitoring of fetal growth and maternal symptoms, with a focus on potential surgical interventions if necessary.
Used for comprehensive obstetric care of a patient with a benign tumor during pregnancy.
Complete documentation of all prenatal visits, assessments, and any complications related to the tumor.
Obstetricians should ensure that all relevant findings related to the tumor are documented in the patient's chart.
Documentation should include the size and location of the tumor, any symptoms experienced by the patient, previous obstetric history, and any complications that arise during the pregnancy.
