Gynecologic surgery
About 58673: Laparoscopic fallopian tube opening
Reports laparoscopic incision and opening of a fallopian tube when the surgeon preserves the tube rather than removing or occluding it.
A gynecologic surgeon uses laparoscopic instruments to make an opening in a fallopian tube while preserving the tube. The procedure may address distal tubal obstruction as part of fertility-preserving surgery. It differs from fimbrioplasty, which focuses on repairing the fimbrial end of the tube. For laparoscopic treatment of a tubal ectopic pregnancy with salpingostomy, the ectopic-pregnancy-specific code 59151 is the relevant code to evaluate.
Choose this code when the operative report documents laparoscopic salpingostomy, including the tube treated and the incision or opening performed. The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. If related endoscopies are performed together, CMS applies endoscopy-family pricing. For bilateral procedures, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

58673 billing questions
How does this differ from fimbrioplasty, code 58672?
Salpingostomy creates an opening in the fallopian tube. Fimbrioplasty repairs the fimbrial end; select based on the procedure documented, not simply the presence of tubal disease.
Should this code be used for laparoscopic salpingostomy for an ectopic pregnancy?
Code 59151 is specific to laparoscopic salpingostomy for ectopic pregnancy. Review the operative indication and procedure before choosing between it and 58673.
How is a bilateral procedure reported?
CMS identifies this as a bilateral procedure; modifier 50 is paid at 150%. The operative report should support treatment of both tubes.
What postoperative care is included?
The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
Can an assistant at surgery be paid for this procedure?
CMS permits payment for an assistant at surgery. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted for this code.
What happens when related endoscopies are performed during the same operation?
CMS applies endoscopy-family pricing when related endoscopies are performed together. The operative report should distinguish the work performed for each procedure.
Where these rates come from
FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense, and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indices and the applicable conversion factor. Unavailable or separately priced services are labeled rather than assigned a made-up amount.
