What ICD-10 codes are used for pelvic mass?
A pelvic mass is an abnormal growth or lump located in the pelvic region. Accurate ICD-10-CM codes are essential for medical billing and documentation. Below are the commonly used codes for pelvic mass:
N83.00: Follicular cyst of ovary, unspecified side
This code is used when a follicular cyst is present in the ovary, but the side (left or right) is not specified in the documentation. Follicular cysts are fluid-filled sacs that develop in the ovary during the menstrual cycle.
N83.01: Follicular cyst of right ovary
This code applies when a follicular cyst is specifically found in the right ovary. It helps healthcare providers and insurers accurately track and treat conditions affecting only one side.
N83.02: Follicular cyst of left ovary
This code is used when the follicular cyst is located in the left ovary. It ensures clarity in diagnosis and treatment planning by specifying the affected ovary.
N83.53: Torsion of the ovary, fallopian tube, and broad ligament
This code refers to a medical emergency where the ovary, fallopian tube, or supporting ligament becomes twisted, cutting off blood flow. It requires prompt diagnosis and treatment to prevent damage to reproductive organs.
N83.8: Other noninflammatory disorders of ovary, fallopian tube, and broad ligament
This code is used to classify cases where a patient has been diagnosed with a noninflammatory disorder or condition affecting the ovary, fallopian tube, or broad ligament in the female reproductive system, and the specific condition is not further specified by another code.
N83.9: Noninflammatory disorder of ovary, fallopian tube, and broad ligament, unspecified
This code is used to classify cases where a patient has a disorder or condition affecting the ovary, fallopian tube, or broad ligament in the female reproductive system, and the specific nature of the disorder is not further specified by another code.
R19.00: Intra-abdominal and pelvic swelling, mass and lump, unspecified site
This code is used to classify cases where the patient has a swelling, mass, or lump in the pelvis or abdomen. Other related codes to this that may signify a mass in the pelvis include:
- R19.01: Right upper quadrant abdominal swelling, mass and lump
- R19.02: Left upper quadrant abdominal swelling, mass and lump
- R19.03: Right lower quadrant abdominal swelling, mass and lump
- R19.04: Left lower quadrant abdominal swelling, mass and lump
