A disorder due to the deposition of hemosiderin in the parenchymal cells, causing tissue damage and dysfunction of the liver, pancreas, heart, and pituitary. Full development of the disease in women is restricted by menstruation, pregnancy, and lower dietary intake of iron. Acquired hemochromatosis may be the result of blood transfusions, excessive dietary iron, or secondary to other disease. Idiopathic or genetic hemochromatosis is an autosomal recessive disorder of metabolism associated with a gene tightly linked to the A locus of the HLA complex on chromosome 6. 275.0 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 275.0 contains 30 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 275.1 Disorders of copper metabolism A rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by the deposition of copper in the BRAIN; LIVER; CORNEA; and other organs. It is caused by defects in the ATP7B gene encoding copper-transporting ATPase 2 (EC 3.6.3.4), also known as the Wilson disease protein. The overload of copper inevitably leads to progressive liver and neurological dysfunction such as LIVER CIRRHOSIS; TREMOR; ATAXIA and intellectual deterioration. Hepatic dysfunction may precede neurologic dysfunction by several years. 275.1 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 275.1 contains 24 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 275.2 Disorders of magnesium metabolism Hypermagnesemia; higher than normal levels of magnesium in the circulating blood. Hypermagnesemia; lower than normal levels of magnesium in the circulating blood. 275.2 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 275.2 contains 4 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 275.3 Disorders of phosphorus metabolism Disorders in the processing of phosphorus in the body: its absorption, transport, storage, and utilization. A genetic metabolic disorder resulting from serum and bone alkaline phosphatase deficiency leading to hypercalcemia, ethanolamine phosphatemia, and ethanolamine phosphaturia. Clinical manifestations include severe skeletal defects resembling vitamin D-resistant rickets, failure of the calvarium to calcify, dyspnea, cyanosis, vomiting, constipation, renal calcinosis, failure to thrive, disorders of movement, beading of the costochondral junction, and rachitic bone changes. Familial disorder characterized by hypophosphatemia associated with decreased renal tubular reabsorption of inorganic phosphorus. It is sometimes associated with osteomalacia or rickets which do not respond to the usual doses of vitamin D. 275.3 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 275.3 contains 14 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 275.4 Disorders of calcium metabolism Disorders in the processing of calcium in the body: its absorption, transport, storage, and utilization. 275.4 is a non-specific code that cannot be used to specify a diagnosis ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 275.40 Unspecified disorder of calcium metabolism Disorders in the processing of calcium in the body: its absorption, transport, storage, and utilization. 275.40 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 275.40 contains 10 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 275.41 Hypocalcemia Reduction of the blood calcium below normal. Manifestations include hyperactive deep tendon reflexes, Chvostek's sign, muscle and abdominal cramps, and carpopedal spasm. Hypocalcemia; lower than normal levels of calcium in the circulating blood. 275.41 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 275.41 contains 2 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 275.42 Hypercalcemia Abnormally high concentration of calcium in the peripheral blood. -- 2004 Abnormally high level of calcium in the blood. (hye-per-kal-SEE-mee-a) Abnormally high blood calcium. 275.42 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 275.42 contains 6 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 275.49 Other disorders of calcium metabolism A genetically related form of PSEUDOHYPOPARATHYROIDISM characterized by the same features except for the abnormal response to parathyroid hormone. A hereditary condition clinically resembling HYPOPARATHYROIDISM, but caused by failure of response to rather than deficiency of parathyroid hormones. It is characterized by hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia, and is commonly associated with short stature, obesity, short metacarpals, and ectopic calcification. A condition characterized by precipitation of calcium phosphate in the tubules of the kidney, with resultant renal insufficiency. Originally reported as a hypocalcemic syndrome similar to hypoparathyroidism, but with renal and skeletal resistance to parathyroid hormone (PTH) and designated as "pseudohypoparathyroidism." Albright later defined a normocalcemic variant which he termed "pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism." Two separate forms of pseudohypoparathyroidism are recognized. Type I in which there is no increase in the urinary excretion of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and phosphate in response to parathyroid hormone (PTH). Type II in which there is a response to PTH, but without phosphate diuresis. The erythrocytes of some patients with type I contain a defective receptor-cyclase coupling protein (stimulatory guanine nucleoside-binding protein, or GS) which is responsible for coupling the cellular receptor that binds parathyroid hormone (PTH) and is involved with the formation and release of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). This variant has been designated as "pseudohypoparathyroidism type Ia." The syndrome is associated with mental deficiency, dystrophic bone lesions, short stature, and other defects. 275.49 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 275.49 contains 15 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 275.8 Other specified disorders of mineral metabolism 275.8 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 275.8 contains 1 index entry ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 275.9 Unspecified disorder of mineral metabolism 275.9 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 275.9 contains 1 index entry
