Adnexitis: the code of the disease in μb 10 1

Among the inflammatory ailments of the female reproductive system, the first place belongs firmly to adnexitis. The disease usually affects not only the fallopian tubes, but also the ovaries. Therefore, the adnexitis code in μb 10 has No. 70, which includes salpingitis and oophoritis simultaneously.

What happens with

disease? Influenza influences the mucous covering of the fallopian tube. Gradually, its walls are layered into the process, because of which a serous liquid appears in the lumen. This is salpingitis.

Since the fallopian tubes are connected to the ovaries, the inflammation rapidly passes to them. Infection is located on the epithelial cover, from which the exit of the sexual cell enters the gland.

Total inflammation leads to soldering of the ovary and fallopian tube. Therefore, on adnexitis put the code in μb 10, referring to the overall process, since a separate infection of these organs is extremely rare because of their close connection.

Paths of penetration of infection

Uterus attachments are a very vulnerable part of the reproductive system. You can get the disease in several ways:

• By infection through the blood in the tuberculosis of genital organs;
• By seizing agents through the lymphatic system;
• Ascending, that is, the migration of bacteria from the infected kidneys, lungs, even throat;
• Distribution from the lower parts of the reproductive system.

Adnexitis μB 10 does not divide by this principle. Nevertheless, the determining factor in therapy and counteracting relapse has what causes the disease. They are distinguished by the type of infectious agents, subdividing salpingo-oophoritis into:

• Specific, that is, caused through the guilt, tuberculosis or diphtheria infections;
• Nonspecific, which are provoked by venereal diseases or conditionally pathogenic flora present in a healthy body.

Causes of development of

Nonspecific cases of the disease are more common. But for any its origin, appropriate conditions are necessary in which adnexitis is more likely:

• Misfortunes that do not affect the reproductive organs( pyelonephritis, recurrent angina);
• Psychological shocks affecting the hormone balance, immunity and vaginal microflora;
• Subcooling;
• Incorrect way of life, weakening resistance to infections;
• Ignoring hygienic requirements;
• Surgical operations and other medical manipulations on the uterus( scraping, hysteroscopy, abortion);
• Frequent change of sexual partners.

Salpingoophoritis μB 10 isolates into a special subsection if the causes of infection in this part of the reproductive system are not known. This is N 70.9, describing the unspecified types of the disease.

The disease can settle on one side of the system, in the right or left appendage. When the process is running, it grabs both.

Acute course of

disease No less important is the salpingo-oophoritis code in μb 10 due to the duration and symptoms of the disease. These points are reflected in the classification, because they also determine the treatment technique.

At the initial infection in the body, bacteria develop violent activity. The disease has a sharp current, that is, obvious signs of trouble, forcing to go to a specialist. In the fallopian tube, moisture accumulates, provoking the appearance of saccules with serous fluid. Sometimes the cavities are filled with pus.

Acute adnexitis, the code for μb 10 No. 70.0, lasts up to 7-10 days and has the following manifestations:

• Severe pain in the lower segment of the abdomen, giving into the sacrum and intensifying with pressure. If the inflammation develops in the right appendage, the sensations are similar to appendicular colic, as they radiate into the intestine. When the infection touched the organs to the left, the pain worries from this side, giving back;
• Discharge from the vagina purulent. If they coincide with menstruation, they change the color of bloody mucus;
• Increased body temperature, febrile condition, muscle spasms;
• Feeling of nausea, repeated vomiting;
• Problems with urination, tenderness in the process.

If the inflammation has taken a chronic course with occasional exacerbations, the symptoms listed above are associated with painful feelings during sex, loss of interest in sexual activity.

Chronic salpingo-oophoritis

Chronic adnexitis code in μb 10 was obtained under No. 70.1.Such a course of the disease is caused by incorrect or incomplete treatment, as a result of which the illness subsides, but does not go away. Chronic adnexitis occurs also with the intensification of the circumstances provoking it.

It is more difficult to detect this form than acute, because obvious symptoms may be absent. And yet they are really detectable, these are:

• Periodically disturbing abdominal pains responding to the in the lower back and thigh. Stronger they appear before critical days, under stress;
• Lethargy, general malaise;
• Changes in the passage of menstruation. Allocations become more scarce, the intervals between critical days increase noticeably. At the same time, mucus and blood are seen outside the menstrual period.

Violation of menstrual function often becomes an assistant in the diagnosis. Long delays mean that infection prevents the egg from ripening, therefore, makes it impossible to conceive. Infertility is not only one of the signs of salpingo-oophoritis, but also a serious consequence, which is more difficult to eliminate than to get rid of the acute form of the disease.

We recommend that you read an article about menstruation with adnexitis. You will learn about the impact of the disease on the menstrual cycle and the nature of the discharge, the methods of treatment and the restoration of the reproductive system.

Complications of salpingo-oophoritis

Adnexitis got the code for μb 10 along with the complications caused by it:

• Abscess of the fallopian tube. Serous fluid accumulated during inflammation, is transformed into pus, affecting the walls of the organ, provoking the formation of adhesions and obstruction in it;
• Ovarian abscess. With the unimpeded development of the infectious process, purulent capsules appear in the organ, which, when combined, melt the tissues. Next, the sex gland turns into a bag full of pus;
• A tubo-ovarian inflammatory disease. A purulent infection, remaining in the ovaries and fallopian tubes, also passes into the abdominal cavity, touching the peritoneum, and the organs adjoining the appendages.

Adnexitis is not life threatening. But this serious disease can worsen its quality.

It has a bad effect on sexual life, reproductive abilities, which is expressed first of all in the of the changed menstrual function. This should prompt the need for examination, if there are no other symptoms.
