ICD-10 Code B58.3 – Pulmonary Toxoplasmosis (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Pulmonary toxoplasmosis is B58.3.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code B58.3 – Pulmonary toxoplasmosis

What it is

B58.3 identifies toxoplasma infection involving the lungs. Use it when documentation states pulmonary toxoplasmosis or toxoplasmosis affecting pulmonary tissue.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Reported findings may include cough, shortness of breath, fever, and abnormal chest imaging in the setting of toxoplasma infection.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents pulmonary toxoplasmosis as the diagnosed site of infection. It may also apply when the record clearly links toxoplasma disease to lung involvement. If the site is not specified, check documentation before coding.

Do not use for

Do not use B58.3 for toxoplasmosis limited to another organ system or for nonspecific suspected infection. If the chart only says exposure, history, or rule-out toxoplasmosis, this code is not appropriate.

Coding tip

Code the documented anatomic site exactly; if pulmonary involvement is not explicit, query or check documentation.
