Prolapse or hernia of ovary and fallopian tube

This code describes the displacement of an ovary and/or fallopian tube from its normal anatomical position, protruding into an abnormal location. This can manifest as a prolapse, where the organs descend, or a hernia, where they protrude through a weakened area.

Use this code when documentation clearly indicates a prolapse or herniation involving both the ovary and the fallopian tube. This diagnosis is often supported by physical examination findings, imaging studies (e.g., ultrasound), or surgical reports confirming the displacement.

• Ensure documentation specifies involvement of both the ovary and fallopian tube; if only one is involved, a more specific code may be appropriate.
• Distinguish from other pelvic organ prolapse codes (e.g., uterine, vaginal) which do not involve adnexal structures.
• Consider any associated pain, infertility, or other symptoms for additional coding, but this code specifically addresses the anatomical displacement.
