Primary blast injury of fallopian tube, bilateral, sequela

This code signifies a long-term consequence or complication arising from a primary blast injury that affected both fallopian tubes. This type of injury is typically sustained from an explosion, and the sequela could include chronic pain, infertility, or scarring that impacts tubal function.

Apply this code when documenting a patient presenting with a current condition directly attributable to a primary blast injury of both fallopian tubes that occurred in the past. This is used for follow-up encounters addressing the residual effects, not the initial acute injury.

• Requires a seventh character "S" to indicate sequela, meaning the patient is seen for the residual effects of a past injury.
• Do not use for acute blast injuries; those would be coded with the appropriate initial encounter or subsequent encounter seventh character.
• Always code the specific sequela (e.g., infertility, chronic pelvic pain) first, followed by this code to indicate the cause.
