What is the ICD 10 code for Epstein-Barr virus mono?
Mononucleosis due to Epstein-Barr virus ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code B27.90 [convert to ICD-9-CM] Infectious mononucleosis, unspecified without complication Epstein barr virus disease; Infectious mononucleosis; Infectious mononucleosis (mono)
What is Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)?
This photomicrograph depicts leukemia cells that contain Epstein–Barr virus using a FA staining technique. Epstein–Barr virus, EBV, is a member of the Herpesvirus family, and is one of the most common human viruses. When infection with EBV occurs during adolescence or young adulthood, it causes infectious mononucleosis 35% to 50% of the time.
What is the ICD 10 code for viral infection?
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis. A88.8 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of other specified viral infections of central nervous system. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
What are the possible complications of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection?
A late event in a very few carriers of this virus is the emergence of Burkitt's lymphoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma, two rare cancers. EBV appears to play an important role in these malignancies, but is probably not the sole cause of disease.

Immunodeficiency following hereditary defective response to Epstein-Barr virus. D82. 3 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM D82.
What is Epstein-Barr virus infection?
Epstein-Barr virus, or EBV, is one of the most common human viruses in the world. It spreads primarily through saliva. EBV can cause infectious mononucleosis, also called mono, and other illnesses. Most people will get infected with EBV in their lifetime and will not have any symptoms.
What is the difference between mononucleosis and Epstein-Barr virus?
Epstein-Barr is the virus that causes mononucleosis. You might know this disease better by its nickname, "mono." It's also called the "kissing disease" because of one way you can spread it to someone else. Even though Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) isn't a household name, you've probably been infected without knowing it.
Is Epstein-Barr virus acute or chronic?
Chronic active Epstein–Barr virus disease is usually defined as a chronic illness lasting at least 6 months, an increased EBV level in either the tissue or the blood, and lack of evidence of a known underlying immunodeficiency (15).
Is Epstein-Barr virus an autoimmune disease?
Epstein-Barr infects B cells—a type of white blood cell in the immune system. This may explain the association between Epstein-Barr and the EBNA2 disorders: All seven are autoimmune diseases, conditions involving an abnormal immune response to a normal body part.
How many types of Epstein-Barr virus are there?
It has long been known that there are two different EBV genotypes: Type 1 and Type 2, also known as Type A and B, respectively (32).
What are two major symptoms of Epstein-Barr virus infection?
Teens and adults are more likely to experience symptoms, which can include:fever.feeling tired or fatigued.headache.sore throat.swollen lymph nodes in your neck or underarms.swollen tonsils.enlarged spleen (splenomegaly) or swollen liver.body aches.More items...
Is Epstein-Barr linked to MS?
Boston, MA – Multiple sclerosis (MS), a progressive disease that affects 2.8 million people worldwide and for which there is no definitive cure, is likely caused by infection with the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), according to a study led by Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health researchers.
How is Epstein-Barr virus Diagnosed?
The Epstein-Barr virus test checks your blood for antibodies. After you are first exposed to EBV, there is an incubation period of several weeks before you start to have symptoms. After the incubation period, the virus multiplies, and you may have symptoms.
What causes chronic Epstein-Barr virus?
In general, EBV is spread through the exchange of bodily fluids such as saliva. Although EBV can infect people of all ages, from kids to adults, it is most common in teens and young adults, who often spread the virus through kissing and sexual contact.
Is Epstein-Barr related to chronic fatigue syndrome?
Lately discovered chronic fatigue syndrome is associated with Epstein-Barr virus infection.
Why is it called Epstein-Barr virus?
The Epstein–Barr virus was named after Michael Anthony Epstein, and Yvonne Barr, who discovered the virus together with Bert Achong.

Overview
Symptoms
Symptoms of infectious mononucleosis are fever, sore throat, and swollen lymph glands. Sometimes, a swollen spleen or liver involvement may develop. Heart problems or involvement of the central nervous system occurs only rarely, and infectious mononucleosis is almost never fatal. There are no known associations between active EBV infection and problems during pregnancy, such as miscarriages or birth defects. Although the symptoms of infectious mononucleosis usu…
Pathology
Epstein–Barr can cause infectious mononucleosis, also known as 'glandular fever', 'mono' and 'Pfeiffer's disease'. Infectious mononucleosis is caused when a person is first exposed to the virus during or after adolescence. It is predominantly found in the developing world, and most children in the developing world are found to have already been infected by around 18 month…
Diagnosis
EBV can be diagnosed through a serological test which detects antibodies in the blood. A serological test should not be conducted among patients with antibody deficiencies and/or passive antibodies. Another test involves screening for the measurement of EBV viral loads in peripheral blood. Radiographic testing is often paired with EBV viral load measuring. A biopsy can also be conducted in order to find where the EBV is manifested.
Treatment
There is no specific treatment for infectious mononucleosis, other than treating the symptoms. In severe cases, steroids such as corticosteroids may be used to control the swelling of the throat and tonsils. Currently, there are no antiviral drugs or vaccines available.
It is important to note that symptoms related to infectious mononucleosis caused by EBV infection seldom last for more than 4 months. When such an illness lasts more than 6 months, i…
