CPT® Code 58760

A fimbrioplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at correcting abnormalities of the fimbriae, which are the finger-like projections at the end of the fallopian tubes. This operation is typically performed through an abdominal incision and is indicated for various conditions that affect the fimbriae, such as agglutination or clubbing, which can hinder the normal function of the fallopian tubes. Additionally, it addresses issues like filmy adhesions and hydrosalpinx, a condition characterized by the accumulation of fluid in the fallopian tube without complete closure of the ostium. The procedure involves a thorough inspection of the abdominal cavity, uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries to assess the extent of the condition. By utilizing techniques such as injecting indigo carbine solution to distend the fallopian tube, the surgeon can visualize and treat the affected areas effectively. The fimbrioplasty not only aims to restore the normal anatomy of the fimbriae but also to enhance fertility potential by ensuring that the fallopian tubes can function properly in the reproductive process.
