Endometriosis of the right pelvic brim, unspecified depth

This code signifies the presence of endometrial tissue abnormally located on the right pelvic brim. This condition, endometriosis, involves tissue similar to the uterine lining growing outside the uterus, leading to inflammation and pain. The "unspecified depth" indicates that the extent of tissue invasion into the pelvic brim is not documented.

Use this code when documentation explicitly states endometriosis affecting the right pelvic brim, and the physician has not specified the depth of infiltration. This typically applies to cases confirmed by imaging or surgical findings where the exact layer of tissue involvement is not detailed.

• Ensure the laterality (right) is clearly documented.
• Do not use this code if a more specific depth (e.g., superficial, deep) is provided; instead, select the appropriate subcategory.
• Consider sequencing this code after any codes for associated complications or symptoms, such as chronic pelvic pain.
