Thyrotoxicosis with toxic multinodular goiter without thyrotoxic crisis or storm. E05.20 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2020 edition of ICD-10-CM E05.20 became effective on October 1, 2019.
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis. E05.20 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of thyrotoxicosis with toxic multinodular goiter without thyrotoxic crisis or storm.
Nontoxic goiter, unspecified. Goiter may be congenital or acquired, sporadic or endemic (goiter, endemic). Enlargement of the thyroid gland usually caused by lack of iodine in the diet, hyperthyroidism, or thyroid nodules. Symptoms include difficulty in breathing and swallowing. Enlargement of the thyroid gland.

Definition: Toxic nodular goiter involves an enlarged thyroid gland that contains a small rounded mass or masses called nodules, which produce too much thyroid hormone. Alternative Names: Toxic adenoma; Toxic multinodular goiter; Plummer's disease.
E04.2ICD-10 | Nontoxic multinodular goiter (E04. 2)
The most common cause of diffuse, toxic goiter, is Graves disease. It is the most common cause of hyperthyroidism in the United States and affects 1 in 200 people. It usually affects people between 30 and 50 years of age, but can occur in any age group.
Toxic nodular goiter does not cause the bulging eyes that can occur with Graves disease. Graves disease is an autoimmune disorder that leads to an overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism).
Sometimes, a person can have a goiter that has multiple nodules or bumps on it, which is called a multinodular goiter. A toxic goiter is one that makes too much thyroid hormone, resulting in a condition called hyperthyroidism. Most thyroid nodules are harmless, but some can be cancerous.
A nontoxic goiter is a diffuse or nodular enlargement of the thyroid gland that does not result from an inflammatory or neoplastic process and is not associated with abnormal thyroid function.
Toxic multinodular goiter: a variant of autoimmune hyperthyroidism.
Multinodular goiters can be either a toxic multinodular goiter (i.e. makes too much thyroid hormone and causes hyperthyroidism.
Toxic multinodular goiter is a cause of nonautoimmune hyperthyroidism and is believed to differ in its nature and pathogenesis from toxic adenoma. Gain-of-function mutations of the TSH receptor gene have been identified as a cause of toxic adenoma.
Toxic nodule or toxic multinodular goiter refers to one or more nodules (typically benign growths) in the thyroid gland that make thyroid hormone without responding to the signal to keep thyroid hormone balanced.
The main cause of thyrotoxicosis is hyperthyroidism, which is an overactivity of the thyroid gland resulting in it producing excess levels of thyroid hormones. If the hyperthyroidism is due to an autoimmune cause, it is called Graves' disease.
Enlargement of the thyroid gland that may increase from about 20 grams to hundreds of grams in human adults. Goiter is observed in individuals with normal thyroid function (euthyroidism), thyroid deficiency (hypothyroidism), or hormone overproduction (hyperthyroidism). Goiter may be congenital or acquired, sporadic or endemic (goiter, endemic).
