  • Q50.0 Congenital absence of ovary (also a header)
  • Q50.1 Developmental ovarian cyst
  • Q50.2 Congenital torsion of ovary
  • Q50.3 Other congenital malformations of ovary (also a header)
  • Q50.4 Embryonic cyst of fallopian tube
  • Q50.5 Embryonic cyst of broad ligament
  • Q50.6 Other congenital malformations of fallopian tube and broad ligament
