Clinical notes

Excludes1 (not coded here)

An Excludes1 note is a pure exclusion: the excluded condition and this code should never be reported together, because the two conditions cannot occur at the same time (e.g. a congenital form vs. an acquired form of the same disease).

  • cord bladder NOS (G95.89)
  • neurogenic bladder due to cauda equina syndrome (G83.4)
  • neuromuscular dysfunction due to spinal cord lesion (G95.89)

Use additional code

This code represents an underlying condition. When a related manifestation is also present, coding convention calls for an additional code to be listed after this one.

  • code to identify any associated urinary incontinence (N39.3-N39.4-)
