ICD Code B58 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the six child codes of B58 that describes the diagnosis 'toxoplasmosis' in more detail.


The ICD code B58 is used to code Toxoplasmosis

Toxoplasmosis is a parasitic disease caused by Toxoplasma gondii. Infections with toxoplasmosis usually cause no symptoms in adult humans. Occasionally there may be a few weeks or months of mild flu-like illness such as muscle aches and tender lymph nodes. In a small number of people, eye problems may develop. In those with a weak immune system, severe symptoms such as seizures and poor coordination may occur. If infected during pregnancy, a condition known as congenital toxoplasmosis may affect the child.
