Unspecified injury of ovary, bilateral, sequela

This code signifies a long-term complication or residual effect stemming from an unspecified injury to both ovaries. It indicates that the initial injury occurred in the past and is now manifesting with ongoing issues or conditions affecting the reproductive organs.

Use this code when documenting a sequela (late effect) of an injury to both ovaries where the specific nature of the original injury is unknown or not documented. This is appropriate for follow-up encounters addressing chronic pain, infertility, or other persistent problems directly attributable to a past, unspecified bilateral ovarian trauma.

• Assign this code as a secondary diagnosis, following the code for the specific sequela being treated (e.g., chronic pelvic pain, infertility).
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to a past, unspecified bilateral ovarian injury.
• Avoid using this code for acute injuries; it is exclusively for sequelae.
