Pinta
An infectious disease of the skin caused by Treponema carateum that occurs only in the western hemisphere. Age of onset is between 10 and 20 years of age. This condition is characterized by marked changes in the skin color and is believed to be transmitted by direct person-to-person contact.
About the A67 Code Range
ICD-10 code A67 is used specifically to identify and classify pinta, a tropical skin infection caused by bacterial parasites. The codes cover various stages and types of lesions related to pinta, enabling precise documentation for this condition.
The codes range from A67.0, which identifies primary lesions of pinta also known as "pinta, primary lesion," to A67.1 for intermediate lesions like "erythematous pinta plaque" or "hyperchromic lesions." Late-stage manifestations such as "achromic skin lesions" or "vitiligo of pinta" are captured under A67.2. Mixed lesions with both hyperchromic and achromic patches fall under A67.3. When the clinical details are insufficient for further specification, A67.9 denotes unspecified pinta. These codes help healthcare providers and coders accurately report the distinct presentations of pinta in medical records and billing systems, supporting targeted treatment and epidemiological tracking.
