Egg Retrieval From The Ovaries

South Carolina rates for HCPCS 58970

Eggs are collected from the ovaries by passing a fine needle into each fluid-filled follicle and drawing out the fluid, which the laboratory then searches for eggs. It is part of fertility treatment and follows a course of medication used to ripen several follicles at once. Sedation or anesthesia is given, and the collection itself takes a short time.
