Wiki Code Question

[ronaldgfell]

Does anyone know how to code for PFAPA
Periodic Fever, Aphthous Stomatitis, Pharyngitis, Adenitis Syndrome.

Trying to find anything that would be close for coding this syndrome.

Thanks

There is no specific code for this syndrome. You have to report a code for each of the symptoms. This may be corrected in future versions of ICD-10. See the summary of the March 2014 ICD-10 Coordination and Maintenance Committee diagnosis agenda items at http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/icd/Summary_March_2014.pdf.
