About coding ovary necrosis
The ICD-10-CM code for ovary necrosis is N70.92 (Oophoritis, unspecified).
Within N70.9, choose N70.92 (Oophoritis, unspecified) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: salpingitis, unspecified (N70.91) and salpingitis and oophoritis, unspecified (N70.93).
Use an additional code (B95-B97), to identify infectious agent.
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
