Gynecologic oncology surgery

About 58954: Extensive gynecologic cancer cytoreduction with hysterectomy

Reports extensive surgery for ovarian, tubal, or primary peritoneal malignancy combining tumor debulking, hysterectomy, bilateral adnexal removal, omentectomy, and lymph-node removal.

This code describes an extensive operation to remove ovarian, fallopian-tube, or primary peritoneal malignancy. The procedure combines tumor cytoreduction with abdominal hysterectomy, removal of both ovaries and fallopian tubes, omentectomy, and lymph-node removal. Gynecologic oncologists typically perform it in a hospital operating room when the operative plan and findings call for this combined extent of cancer surgery.

Select the code from the procedures actually performed and documented, including the hysterectomy, bilateral adnexal removal, omentectomy, tumor debulking, and lymph-node work. These components are represented in the combined service rather than separately reported as independent procedures. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. The code is priced as bilateral, so modifier 50 does not increase payment. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation. Team-surgery payment is not permitted.
