Bovine stomatitis

This code represents a viral infection primarily affecting cattle, characterized by inflammation and lesions of the oral mucosa. It is caused by the Bovine Papular Stomatitis Virus (BPSV), leading to papules, vesicles, and erosions within the mouth. While primarily a veterinary concern, this code is used when a human presents with a zoonotic infection contracted from infected animals.

Apply this code when a human patient is diagnosed with a zoonotic infection manifesting as stomatitis, directly linked to exposure to cattle infected with Bovine Papular Stomatitis Virus. Documentation should clearly indicate the patient's exposure history and the clinical presentation consistent with oral lesions caused by BPSV.

• Ensure documentation explicitly states "bovine stomatitis" or "Bovine Papular Stomatitis Virus" in a human patient.
• Do not confuse with other forms of stomatitis (e.g., aphthous, herpetic) that are not zoonotic from cattle.
• Consider an additional code for the specific exposure or contact if relevant and documented.
