 Nerve root and plexus disorders- 353 is a non-specific code that cannot be used to specify a diagnosis
Brachial plexus lesions- A condition associated with compression of the BRACHIAL PLEXUS; SUBCLAVIAN ARTERY; and SUBCLAVIAN VEIN at the thoracic outlet and caused by a complete or incomplete anomalous cervical rib or fascial band connecting the tip of a cervical rib with the first thoracic rib. Clinical manifestations may include pain in the neck and shoulder which radiates into the upper extremity, PARESIS or PARALYSIS of brachial plexus innervated muscles; sensory loss; PARESTHESIAS; ISCHEMIA; and EDEMA. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p214)
- A neurovascular syndrome associated with compression of the BRACHIAL PLEXUS; SUBCLAVIAN ARTERY; and SUBCLAVIAN VEIN at the superior thoracic outlet. This may result from a variety of anomalies such as a cervical rib (CERVICAL RIB SYNDROME), anomalous fascial bands, and abnormalities of the origin or insertion of the anterior or medial scalene muscles. Clinical features may include pain in the shoulder and neck region which radiates into the arm, PARESIS or PARALYSIS of brachial plexus innervated muscles, PARESTHESIA, loss of sensation, reduction of arterial pulses in the affected extremity, ISCHEMIA, and EDEMA. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp214-5).

Thoracic root lesions not elsewhere classified- 353.3 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis
- 353.3 contains 2 index entries
Lumbosacral root lesions not elsewhere classified- 353.4 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis
- 353.4 contains 3 index entries
Neuralgic amyotrophy- A syndrome associated with inflammation of the BRACHIAL PLEXUS. Clinical features include severe pain in the shoulder region which may be accompanied by MUSCLE WEAKNESS and loss of sensation in the upper extremity. This condition may be associated with VIRUS DISEASES; IMMUNIZATION; SURGERY; heroin use (see HEROIN DEPENDENCE); and other conditions. The term brachial neuralgia generally refers to pain associated with brachial plexus injury. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp1355-6)
- 353.5 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis
- 353.5 contains 5 index entries
Phantom limb (syndrome)- Perception of painful and nonpainful phantom sensations that occur following the complete or partial loss of a limb. The majority of individuals with an amputated extremity will experience the impression that the limb is still present, and in many cases, painful. (From Neurol Clin 1998 Nov;16(4):919-36; Brain 1998 Sep;121(Pt 9):1603-30)
- 353.6 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis
- 353.6 contains 2 index entries
Other nerve root and plexus disorders- 353.8 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis
- 353.8 contains 6 index entries
Unspecified nerve root and plexus disorder- 353.9 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis
- 353.9 contains 1 index entry
