Deep endometriosis of right ovary

This code signifies the presence of deep infiltrating endometriosis specifically affecting the right ovary. Deep endometriosis is characterized by lesions penetrating more than 5mm beneath the peritoneal surface. This condition can cause significant pain and impact ovarian function.

Apply this code when documentation explicitly states deep endometriosis involving the right ovary, often identified through imaging (e.g., MRI, ultrasound) or surgical findings. This diagnosis is typically made in patients presenting with chronic pelvic pain, dyspareunia, or infertility.

• Ensure documentation specifies "deep" endometriosis and laterality (right ovary).
• Do not use for superficial ovarian endometriosis; refer to N80.10 or N80.11.
• Consider sequencing with codes for associated symptoms (e.g., chronic pelvic pain, infertility) or other endometriosis sites.
