Therefore, this code may be out of date. The 2009 version of ICD-9-CM 336.9 can be accessed here. 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. Pathologic conditions which feature SPINAL CORD damage or dysfunction, including disorders involving the meninges and perimeningeal spaces surrounding the spinal cord. Traumatic injuries, vascular diseases, infections, and inflammatory/autoimmune processes may affect the spinal cord. 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 336.9 also known as: Cord compression NOS Myelopathy NOS 336.9 excludes: myelitis (323.02, 323.1, 323.2, 323.42, 323.52, 323.63, 323.72, 323.82, 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 [323.72] degeneration or displacement, intervertebral disc 722.70 cervical, cervicothoracic 722.71 lumbar, lumbosacral 722.73 thoracic, thoracolumbar 722.72 hydroxyquinoline derivatives 961.3 [323.72] infection - see Encephalitis intervertebral disc disorder 722.70 cervical, cervicothoracic 722.71 lumbar, lumbosacral 722.73 thoracic, thoracolumbar 722.72 lead 984.9 [323.72] mercury 985.0 [323.72] 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 [323.72] 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 [323.72] transverse (see also Myelitis) 323.82 vascular 336.1 Pressure spinal cord 336.9
