About 58720: Ovary and fallopian tube removal
Removal of an ovary together with its fallopian tube on one or both sides, for adnexal disease or another operative indication.
This operation removes an ovary and its associated fallopian tube on one or both sides; the resection may be complete or partial. Gynecologic surgeons commonly perform it for an adnexal mass, torsion-related damage, or other disease requiring removal of the tubo-ovarian unit, typically in an operating room. The operative report should identify the structures removed, the side or sides, and the extent of resection.
Report 58720 when the procedure removes ovarian and tubal tissue together; choose based on the work performed, not the diagnosis alone. CMS prices this code as bilateral, so modifier 50 does not increase payment. It has a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures occur in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% multiple-procedure reduction. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be available; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation. Team surgery is not permitted.
