Cervical duplication

This code describes a congenital anomaly where a patient presents with a double cervix, meaning two distinct cervical canals and os. This condition is a form of Mullerian duct anomaly, often associated with other reproductive tract malformations.

Use this code when documentation clearly indicates the presence of a duplicated cervix, identified through imaging studies (e.g., ultrasound, MRI) or direct visualization during examination or surgery. It is appropriate for congenital cases of a double cervix.

• Ensure documentation specifies "duplication" of the cervix, not merely a septate or bicornuate uterus without cervical involvement.
• Always code any associated uterine or vaginal anomalies separately, as they are not inherent to this cervical code.
• Confirm the anomaly is congenital; acquired cervical conditions would be coded differently.
