Torsion of ovary, ovarian pedicle and fallopian tube

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

A twisted ovary, fallopian tube, and the tissue structures connecting them, all occurring together. This serious condition can compromise blood supply to multiple reproductive organs.

Coding Tips

  • •This code indicates involvement of multiple structures (ovary, tube, and pedicle); do not use with separate codes for individual torsions
  • •Often requires surgical intervention; check operative reports for confirmation of all affected structures
