Mycobacterium Tuberculosis is the pathogen that causes tuberculosis ([[Tuberculosis of the respiratory system, confirmed]]).

*Mycobacterium Tuberculosis is the pathogen that causes tuberculosis ([[Tuberculosis of the respiratory system, confirmed]]).

*The M. tuberculosis complex (MTBC) includes four other TB-causing mycobacteria:

** M. bovis

** M. africanum

** M. canetti

** M. microti

~~The M.~~ tuberculosis ~~complex~~ (~~MTBC~~) ~~includes four other TB-causing mycobacteria:~~

*'''Includes:'''

* ~~M. bovis~~

** tuberculous involvement of the GI tract

* ~~M. africanum~~

** renal tuberculosis

* ~~M. canetti~~

** combine with [[Lymphangitis]] for a lymph node tuberculosis infection (also called TB lymphadenitis)

* M. ~~microti~~

** Use this code combined with [[Infectious disease NOS]] for treatment of latent tuberculosis

** For TB of any organ not listed under "excluded: below, use this code ({{PAGENAME}}) with an "NOS" code for the organ in question.

~~Use this code combined with~~ [[Infectious disease ~~NOS~~]] ~~for treatment of latent~~ tuberculosis

*''' Excludes:'''

** [[Observation for SUSPECTED tuberculosis]]

~~'''Includes'''~~: ~~tuberculous involvement of the GI tract~~, ~~renal~~ tuberculosis

** [[Infectious contact/exposure, tuberculosis, without disease (yet)]]

** [[Past history, tuberculosis, believed cured or inactive]]

** We have specific codes for the following organs affected by TB:

:: {{#ask: [[Category:Infectious disease|+depth=0]][[Category:Tuberculosis|+depth=0]][[!:Observation for SUSPECTED tuberculosis]][[!:Infectious contact/exposure, tuberculosis, without disease (yet)]]
