Left tubal pregnancy with intrauterine pregnancy

This code signifies a rare and complex form of heterotopic pregnancy where a viable intrauterine pregnancy coexists with an ectopic pregnancy located in the left fallopian tube. This condition presents significant risks to both the mother and the intrauterine fetus.

Apply this code when documentation clearly indicates the simultaneous presence of a confirmed intrauterine gestation and a separate, distinct pregnancy within the left fallopian tube. Diagnostic confirmation typically involves ultrasound imaging demonstrating both gestational sacs in their respective locations.

• Ensure documentation specifies the laterality of the tubal pregnancy (left).
• Do not confuse with other types of ectopic pregnancies or intrauterine pregnancies without an ectopic component.
• Sequence this code as the primary diagnosis when it is the reason for the encounter.
