Noninflammatory disorders of ovary, fallopian tube and broad ligament (N83)

The ICD-10 code section N83 covers a variety of noninflammatory disorders of the ovary, fallopian tube, and broad ligament. These codes are used to identify benign cysts such as follicular cysts (N83.0), corpus luteum cysts (N83.1), unspecified or other ovarian cysts (N83.2), as well as acquired atrophy, prolapse, torsion, hematosalpinx, hematoma, and other related conditions not involving inflammation.

This section helps medical coders specifically classify conditions including common cyst variants like follicular cysts, also known as luteinized follicular cysts or ruptured cysts (N83.00–N83.02), and hemorrhagic corpus luteum cysts (N83.10–N83.12). It also accounts for less common disorders such as acquired atrophy affecting the ovary or fallopian tube (N83.31–N83.33) and mechanical issues like prolapse or hernia of these structures (N83.4x). The codes further encompass emergencies like torsion of the ovary or fallopian tube (N83.5x), as well as bleeding conditions like hematosalpinx (N83.6) and hematoma of the broad ligament (N83.7). The miscellaneous category (N83.8) includes conditions such as diminished ovarian reserve, cysts of the fallopian tube, and hypertrophy or infarction, providing precise coding for diverse noninflammatory gynecological disorders. This targeted coding enables accurate documentation and communication about specific ovarian and adnexal pathologies without inflammatory causes, guiding treatment and diagnosis clearly.

Instructional Notations

Type 2 Excludes

A type 2 excludes note represents "Not included here". An excludes2 note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition represented by the code, but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When an Excludes2 note appears under a code, it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together, when appropriate.
