O36.70X2
ICD-10-CMMaternal care for viable fetus in abdominal pregnancy, unspecified trimester, fetus 2
This code signifies ongoing medical management and monitoring of a pregnant patient carrying a viable fetus located outside the uterus within the abdominal cavity. This is a rare and high-risk form of ectopic pregnancy where the fetus has implanted and is developing in the abdomen. The "fetus 2" designation indicates this code is specifically for the second fetus in a multiple gestation pregnancy.
Use this code when documentation confirms an abdominal pregnancy with a viable fetus, and the patient is receiving maternal care for this condition. This code is appropriate when the trimester is not specified in the medical record. Documentation should clearly state the location of the pregnancy and the viability of the fetus.
