Complications following ectopic and molar pregnancy (O08)

Browse all the diagnosis codes used for complications following ectopic and molar pregnancy (o08). For easy navigation, the diagnosis codes are sorted in alphabetical order and grouped by sections. Each section is clearly marked with its description, and the corresponding three-digit code range.

We've also added green checkmark icons to label billable codes, and red warning icons for non-billable ones. This makes it easy to identify which codes can be billed.

Clinical Information

Afibrinogenemia - A deficiency or absence of FIBRINOGEN in the blood.

Broad Ligament - A broad fold of peritoneum that extends from the side of the uterus to the wall of the pelvis.

Fibrinogen - Plasma glycoprotein clotted by thrombin, composed of a dimer of three non-identical pairs of polypeptide chains (alpha, beta, gamma) held together by disulfide bonds. Fibrinogen clotting is a sol-gel change involving complex molecular arrangements: whereas fibrinogen is cleaved by thrombin to form polypeptides A and B, the proteolytic action of other enzymes yields different fibrinogen degradation products.

Oliguria - Decreased URINE output that is below the normal range. Oliguria can be defined as urine output of less than or equal to 0.5 or 1 ml/kg/hr depending on the age.

Parametritis - Inflammation of the parametrium, the connective tissue of the pelvic floor, extending from the subserous coat of the uterus laterally between the layers of the BROAD LIGAMENT.

Urine - Liquid by-product of excretion produced in the kidneys, temporarily stored in the bladder until discharge through the URETHRA.
