Additional Info
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
Use this code combined with Infectious disease NOS for treatment of latent tuberculosis
Includes: tuberculous involvement of the GI tract
Double Duty Pathogen code
This ICD10 code does double duty as both a pathogen and a disease condition:
- as the Infection with implied pathogen tuberculosis of other organs for which we don't have a specific code
- as the pathogen any pathogen from the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex
