Answer - a. N83.292
N83.292 is a billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis
of other ovarian cyst, left side. The ICD-10-CM code N83.292 might
also be used to specify conditions or terms like bilateral complex
ovarian cyst, complex cyst of left ovary, complex cyst of right
ovary, complex ovarian cyst, complex ovarian cyst, cyst of
bilateral ovaries, etc
The code N83.292 is applicable to female patients only. It is
clinically and virtually impossible to use this code on a
non-female patient.
