Prolapse and hernia of left ovary and fallopian tube

This code signifies the displacement of the left ovary and fallopian tube from their normal anatomical position, protruding into an adjacent space or through an opening. This condition can involve the descent of these structures into the pelvic floor or through a defect in the abdominal wall.

Use this code when documentation clearly indicates a prolapse or herniation specifically affecting the left ovary and fallopian tube. This typically occurs in cases of pelvic floor weakness, prior surgical interventions, or congenital defects. Supporting documentation includes physician notes detailing the laterality and specific organs involved, often confirmed by imaging studies.

• Ensure the documentation specifies "left" ovary and fallopian tube; do not use for unspecified laterality or the right side.
• Distinguish from simple ovarian displacement without herniation or prolapse, which would be coded differently.
• Consider any associated pain or other symptoms, which may require additional symptom codes.
