, if applicable, any causal condition, such as:
enlarged prostate (N40.1)

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).

psychogenic polyuria (F45.8)
