Traumatic injuries, vascular diseases, infections, and inflammatory/autoimmune processes may affect the spinal cord. Acute and chronic conditions characterized by external mechanical compression of the SPINAL CORD due to extramedullary neoplasm; EPIDURAL ABSCESS; SPINAL FRACTURES; bony deformities of the vertebral bodies; and other conditions. Clinical manifestations vary with the anatomic site of the lesion and may include localized pain, weakness, sensory loss, incontinence, and impotence. 336.9 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 336.9 contains 7 index entries View the ICD-9-CM Volume 1 336.* hierarchy Alternate Terminology Cord compression NOS Myelopathy NOS 336.9 Excludes myelitis (323.0-323.9) spinal (canal) stenosis (723.0, 724.00-724.09)  Index entries containing 336.9: Block spinal cord 336.9 Change(s) (of) - see also Removal of spinal cord 336.9 Compression spinal (cord) (old or nontraumatic) 336.9 by displacement of intervertebral disc - see Displacement, intervertebral disc nerve root NEC 724.9 postoperative 722.80 cervical region 722.81 lumbar region 722.83 thoracic region 722.82 traumatic - see Injury, nerve, spinal traumatic - see Injury, nerve, spinal spondylogenic 721.91 cervical 721.1 lumbar, lumbosacral 721.42 thoracic 721.41 traumatic - see also Injury, spinal, by site with fracture, vertebra - see Fracture, vertebra, by site, with spinal cord injury Disease, diseased - see also Syndrome spine, spinal 733.90 cord NEC 336.9 congenital 742.9 Lesion(s) spinal cord 336.9 congenital 742.9 traumatic (complete) (incomplete) (transverse) - see also Injury, spinal, by site with broken back - see Fracture, vertebra, by site, with spinal cord injury neck - see Fracture, vertebra, cervical, with spinal cord injury fracture, vertebra - see Fracture, vertebra, by site, with spinal cord injury Myelopathy (spinal cord) 336.9 cervical 721.1 diabetic 250.6 [336.3] drug-induced 336.8 due to or with carbon tetrachloride 987.8 [] degeneration or displacement, intervertebral disc 722.70 cervical, cervicothoracic 722.71 lumbar, lumbosacral 722.73 thoracic, thoracolumbar 722.72 hydroxyquinoline derivatives 961.3 [] infection - see Encephalitis intervertebral disc disorder 722.70 cervical, cervicothoracic 722.71 lumbar, lumbosacral 722.73 thoracic, thoracolumbar 722.72 lead 984.9 [] mercury 985.0 [] neoplastic disease (see also Neoplasm, by site) 239.9 [336.3] pernicious anemia 281.0 [336.3] spondylosis 721.91 cervical 721.1 lumbar, lumbosacral 721.42 thoracic 721.41 thallium 985.8 [] lumbar, lumbosacral 721.42 necrotic (subacute) 336.1 radiation-induced 336.8 spondylogenic NEC 721.91 cervical 721.1 lumbar, lumbosacral 721.42 thoracic 721.41 thoracic 721.41 toxic NEC 989.9 [] transverse (see also Myelitis) vascular 336.1 Pressure spinal cord 336.9
