    ICD-10-CM Code For Diseases Of Bartholin's Gland: Group Overview

    The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) code group N75 includes inflammatory and cystic disorders of the Bartholin's gland such as Bartholin cyst and Bartholin abscess, capturing infections, ductal obstruction, and associated local inflammatory complications. These ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes are used to document clinical encounters for evaluation, drainage, excision, or infection management, capturing disease severity, presence of abscess, and need for procedural intervention. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-CM N75 group supports proper claim adjudication and complete clinical documentation and appropriate reimbursement.

    ICD-10-CM N75: Diseases Of Bartholin's Gland Overview

    The ICD-10-CM N75 code group captures inflammatory and cystic conditions affecting the Bartholin's glands, which lie at the posterior introitus of the vulva. These diagnoses target the female lower genital tract and often involve localized pain, swelling, abscess formation, or ductal obstruction. Accurate coding is important for complete clinical documentation and to support appropriate reimbursement for services related to diagnosis and treatment.

    When to Use

    Use a code from this group when the clinical record documents a Bartholin gland cyst, abscess, or related inflammatory condition as the reason for the encounter or treatment. Select codes that reflect the presence of abscess, laterality, and any procedures performed to accurately represent the clinical situation.

    Typical Clinical Scenarios

    • A 28-year-old sexually active woman presents to urgent care with a 48-hour history of increasing vulvar pain, localized swelling at the posterior labia majora, erythema, and fever. On examination there is a tender fluctuant mass consistent with a Bartholin gland abscess requiring incision and drainage; a diagnosis from this group is assigned to capture the acute infective process. Typical codes: N75.0
    • A 35-year-old woman reports recurrent painless swelling of the lower vestibule that enlarges intermittently over months and causes discomfort with intercourse; physical exam reveals a non-tender cystic lesion at the duct of the Bartholin gland without signs of acute infection. This chronic, noninfectious obstructive process is coded from this group to document the benign cystic lesion and guide outpatient management. Typical codes: N75.1
    • A 62-year-old postmenopausal woman presents with a persistent, firm Bartholin gland mass that is irregular and does not resolve with conservative measures; given age and atypical features, the lesion is evaluated for other pathology and treated as an unspecified disease of the Bartholin gland while malignancy is ruled out. This scenario uses a nonspecific code from the group when the presentation is atypical or not yet fully characterized. Typical codes: N75.9, N75.8
