N83.53N83. 53 - Torsion of ovary, ovarian pedicle and fallopian tube | ICD-10-CM.
An uncommon but serious condition called ovarian torsion (also known as adnexal torsion) occurs when the ovary, and sometimes the fallopian tube, twist on the tissues that support them. This cuts off the blood supply to the ovary, which if not treated promptly, can cause tissue in the organ to die.
Ovarian torsion is a rare but emergency condition in women. Early diagnosis is necessary to preserve the function of the ovaries and tubes and prevent severe morbidity. Ovarian torsion refers to complete or partial rotation of the adnexal supporting organ with ischemia.
Torsion can occur if the ovary is unstable. For example, a cyst or ovarian mass can cause the ovary to become lopsided, making it unstable. You may also be more likely to develop ovarian torsion if you: have polycystic ovarian syndrome.
Torsion is most likely to occur when the ovary is 5 cm in diameter or larger [20,23,24]. This represents an average, and torsion may occur with an ovary of any size; in general, as the size of the ovary increases, the risk of torsion increases.
Ovarian torsion is a condition that occurs when there is a partial or complete twisting or torsion of the ovary around its ligamentous supports. If left untreated, it results in interruption of blood and lymphatic supply to the ovary and the fallopian tube with resultant infarction and loss of function.
Surgery is the only treatment for ovarian torsion. Your doctor will recommend one of the following two surgeries. You should seek immediate medical attention if you think your ovaries are twisted. This will help you relieve the pain quicker, and keep you from having to get your reproductive organs removed.
Ovarian torsion is a condition that occurs when an ovary twists around the ligaments that hold it in place. This twisting can cut off blood flow to the ovary and fallopian tube. Ovarian torsion can cause severe pain and other symptoms because the ovary is not receiving enough blood.
When the ovary twists itself or on the fallopian tube, this is known as ovarian torsion or adnexal torsion. It's serious, but typically not life-threatening, a medical emergency that requires swift diagnosis and treatment.

Sometimes ovarian torsion resolves itself on its own, as it did with Philipps. This is called intermittent torsion, meaning that the torsed ovary twists back into place and then ceases twisting. However, experts say you shouldn't wait to see if the ovary will twist back on its own.
Ovarian torsion may lead to complications, especially the death of the ovarian tissue (ovarian necrosis).
Thus it takes about 2-4 months for complete recovery after ovarian torsion. Recovery time can change from person to person. It mainly depends on the type of surgery that they have undergone and also at the stage of time they had undergone the treatment.
The initial effect of testicular torsion is obstruction of venous return.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM N44.00 became effective on October 1, 2021.
An emergency condition caused by the twisting of the spermatic cord which contains the vessels that provide the blood supply to the testis and surrounding structures. It manifests with acute testicular pain. If immediate medical assistance is not provided, it will lead to necrosis and loss of the testicular tissue.
Ovarian torsion (OT) refers to the rotation of the ovary at its pedicle to such a degree as to occlude the ovarian artery and/or vein.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code N83.53 and a single ICD9 code, 620.5 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
