Deep endometriosis of the right uterosacral ligament

This code specifies the presence of deep infiltrating endometriosis affecting the right uterosacral ligament. This condition involves endometrial-like tissue growing more than 5mm beneath the peritoneal surface, causing significant pain and potentially impacting bowel or bladder function.

Use this code when diagnostic imaging (e.g., MRI, transvaginal ultrasound) or surgical findings confirm deep endometriosis specifically located in the right uterosacral ligament. Documentation should clearly indicate the depth of infiltration and the precise anatomical location.

• Ensure documentation specifies "deep" endometriosis and the exact anatomical site (right uterosacral ligament) for accurate coding.
• Distinguish from superficial peritoneal endometriosis, which is coded differently.
• Consider sequencing with codes for associated symptoms (e.g., chronic pelvic pain, dyspareunia) or complications.
