About 58672: Laparoscopic fimbrial reconstruction
Laparoscopic fimbrioplasty repairs the fimbrial end of a fallopian tube, typically to address distal narrowing or fimbrial agglutination while preserving the tube.
A gynecologic surgeon performs fimbrioplasty through laparoscopic access to correct abnormal fimbriae at the distal end of a fallopian tube. The work focuses on restoring the fimbrial opening and configuration, such as when fimbriae are narrowed or adherent. It is a reconstructive tubal procedure, rather than removal of the tube or a sterilization procedure, and is generally performed in an operating room under anesthesia.
Report the service when the operative record supports repair of the fimbrial end, including the side treated and the specific corrective work. The code has a 90-day global period, which includes the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care during that period. For bilateral treatment, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Endoscopy family pricing applies when related endoscopies are performed together. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

58672 billing questions
How is fimbrioplasty different from laparoscopic salpingostomy?
Fimbrioplasty repairs the fimbrial end and its opening. Salpingostomy creates an opening in the fallopian tube, so select the code that matches the operative work documented.
Can modifier 50 be reported for bilateral fimbrioplasty?
Yes. CMS identifies this as a bilateral procedure, and modifier 50 is paid at 150%.
How does endoscopy family pricing affect another endoscopy performed during the same session?
When related endoscopies are performed together, endoscopy family pricing applies. The payment is determined under that pricing rule rather than treating each related endoscopy as independently payable at its full rate.
What postoperative care is included in the global period?
The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care for 90 days.
May an assistant surgeon be reported?
CMS permits payment for an assistant at surgery for this procedure. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
