A 34-year-old infertility patient with a history of repeated miscarriages and dysmenorrhea is being seen today to evaluate the patency of her fallopian tubes. The physician suspects that there might be occlusions that are preventing the egg from implanting or preventing sperm from moving through. A transcervical catheter is used to view the fallopian tubes for patency, and a hysterosalpingography is also performed. Select the appropriate CPT and ICD-10-CM codes.

The correct codes are 58345 (Hysterosalpingography) and 74742 (Transcervical catheterization for tubal patency). The patient has a history of repeated miscarriages and dysmenorrhea, which suggests that there may be occlusions in the fallopian tubes. The transcervical catheterization and hysterosalpingography are both procedures that can be used to evaluate the patency of the fallopian tubes.
