In simple words: This code describes problems with the vagina that aren't caused by infection and don't fit into other more specific categories.This could include things like old tears in the vagina or unusual vaginal discharge that's not due to an infection.

This ICD-10-CM code encompasses various non-inflammatory conditions affecting the vagina that are not otherwise specified.Examples include old vaginal lacerations, leukorrhea not specified as infective, vaginal hematoma, and other unspecified non-inflammatory vaginal disorders.It is crucial to document the specific condition to the extent possible to ensure accurate coding.

Example 1: A patient presents with a history of an old vaginal laceration from a previous childbirth.No current symptoms are present, but the patient is concerned about the scar. , A patient reports a persistent, clear vaginal discharge without any other symptoms.Infections and other causes have been ruled out., A patient has a vaginal hematoma (blood clot) following a minor trauma to the vagina, but no active bleeding is present.

Detailed documentation of the patient's history, physical examination findings, diagnostic test results (if any), and the specific non-inflammatory vaginal condition are required for appropriate code assignment.The clinical note should clearly indicate why a more specific code cannot be used. Complete documentation regarding other diagnoses or procedures is also vital.
