Papilledema occurs when increased brain pressure caused by tumors or other problems results in swelling of the optic nerve. Swelling around the optic nerve, usually due to pressure on the nerve by a tumor. Swelling of the OPTIC DISK, usually in association with increased intracranial pressure, characterized by hyperemia, blurring of the disk margins, microhemorrhages, blind spot enlargement, and engorgement of retinal veins. Chronic papilledema may cause OPTIC ATROPHY and visual loss. (Miller et al., Clinical Neuro-Ophthalmology, 4th ed, p175) 377.0 is a non-specific code that cannot be used to specify a diagnosis ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.00 Papilledema unspecified (pap-il-eh-DEE-ma) Swelling around the optic disk, the area where the optic nerve (the nerve that carries messages from the eye to the brain) enters the eyeball. Papilledema occurs when increased brain pressure caused by tumors or other problems results in swelling of the optic nerve. Swelling around the optic nerve, usually due to pressure on the nerve by a tumor. Swelling of the OPTIC DISK, usually in association with increased intracranial pressure, characterized by hyperemia, blurring of the disk margins, microhemorrhages, blind spot enlargement, and engorgement of retinal veins. Chronic papilledema may cause OPTIC ATROPHY and visual loss.

This condition indicates a deficiency in the number of nerve fibers which arise in the RETINA and converge to form the OPTIC DISK, OPTIC NERVE, OPTIC CHIASM, and optic tracts. GLAUCOMA, ISCHEMIA, inflammation, a chronic elevation of intracranial pressure, toxins, optic nerve compression, and inherited conditions (see OPTIC ATROPHIES, HEREDITARY) are relatively common causes of this condition. 377.1 is a non-specific code that cannot be used to specify a diagnosis ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.10 Optic atrophy unspecified Atrophy of the optic disk which may be congenital or acquired. This condition indicates a deficiency in the number of nerve fibers which arise in the RETINA and converge to form the OPTIC DISK, OPTIC NERVE, OPTIC CHIASM, and optic tracts. GLAUCOMA, ISCHEMIA, inflammation, a chronic elevation of intracranial pressure, toxins, optic nerve compression, and inherited conditions (see OPTIC ATROPHIES, HEREDITARY) are relatively common causes of this condition. 377.10 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 377.10 contains 2 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.11 Primary optic atrophy 377.11 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 377.11 contains 1 index entry ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.12 Postinflammatory optic atrophy 377.12 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 377.12 contains 1 index entry ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.13 Optic atrophy associated with retinal dystrophies 377.13 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 377.13 contains 1 index entry ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.14 Glaucomatous atrophy (cupping) of optic disc 377.14 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 377.14 contains 4 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.15 Partial optic atrophy 377.15 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 377.15 contains 2 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.16 Hereditary optic atrophy A maternally linked genetic disorder that presents in mid-life as acute or subacute central vision loss leading to central scotoma and blindness. The disease has been associated with missense mutations in the mtDNA, in genes for Complex I, III, and IV polypeptides, that can act autonomously or in association with each other to cause the disease. (from Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Omim/, MIM#535000 (April 17, 2001)) Dominant optic atrophy is a hereditary optic neuropathy causing decreased visual acuity, color vision deficits, a centrocecal scotoma, and optic nerve pallor (Hum. Genet. 1998; 102: 79-86). Mutations leading to this condition have been mapped to the OPA1 gene at chromosome 3q28-q29. OPA1 codes for a dynamin-related GTPase that localizes to mitochondria. Hereditary conditions that feature progressive visual loss in association with optic atrophy. Relatively common forms include autosomal dominant optic atrophy (OPTIC ATROPHY, AUTOSOMAL DOMINANT) and Leber hereditary optic atrophy (OPTIC ATROPHY, HEREDITARY, LEBER). 377.16 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 377.16 contains 6 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.2 Other disorders of optic disc 377.2 is a non-specific code that cannot be used to specify a diagnosis ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.21 Drusen of optic disc Optic disk bodies composed primarily of acid mucopolysaccharides that may produce pseudopapilledema (elevation of the optic disk without associated INTRACRANIAL HYPERTENSION) and visual field deficits. Drusen may also occur in the retina (see RETINAL DRUSEN). (Miller et al., Clinical Neuro-Ophthalmology, 4th ed, p355) 377.21 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 377.21 contains 2 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.22 Crater-like holes of optic disc 377.22 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 377.22 contains 1 index entry ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.23 Coloboma of optic disc 377.23 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 377.23 contains 1 index entry ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.24 Pseudopapilledema 377.24 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 377.24 contains 3 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.3 Optic neuritis Inflammation of the optic nerve.

Clinical features include retro-orbital pain that is aggravated by eye movement, loss of color vision, and contrast sensitivity that may progress to severe visual loss, an afferent pupillary defect (Marcus-Gunn pupil), and in some instances optic disc hyperemia and swelling. Inflammation may occur in the portion of the nerve within the globe (neuropapillitis or anterior optic neuritis) or the portion behind the globe (retrobulbar neuritis or posterior optic neuritis). 377.3 is a non-specific code that cannot be used to specify a diagnosis ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 377.30 Optic neuritis unspecified Inflammation of the optic nerve.

The injury results from occlusion of arterial blood supply which may result from TEMPORAL ARTERITIS; ATHEROSCLEROSIS; COLLAGEN DISEASES; EMBOLI; DIABETES MELLITUS; and other conditions. The disease primarily occurs in the sixth decade or later and presents with the sudden onset of painless and usually severe monocular visual loss. Anterior ischemic optic neuropathy also features optic disk edema with microhemorrhages. The optic disk appears normal in posterior ischemic optic neuropathy.
