Demyelination occurs in peripheral nerves and nerve roots. The process is often preceded by a viral or bacterial infection, surgery, immunization, lymphoma, or exposure to toxins. Common clinical manifestations include progressive weakness, loss of sensation, and loss of deep tendon reflexes. Weakness of respiratory muscles and autonomic dysfunction may occur. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp1312-1314) 357.0 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 357.0 contains 30 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 357.1 Polyneuropathy in collagen vascular disease 357.1 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 357.1 contains 4 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 357.2 Polyneuropathy in diabetes 357.2 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 357.2 contains 10 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 357.3 Polyneuropathy in malignant disease A diffuse or multifocal peripheral neuropathy related to the remote effects of a neoplasm, most often carcinoma or lymphoma. Pathologically, there are inflammatory changes in peripheral nerves. The most common clinical presentation is a symmetric distal mixed sensorimotor polyneuropathy. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1334) 357.3 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 357.3 contains 1 index entry ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 357.4 Polyneuropathy in other diseases classified elsewhere 357.4 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 357.4 contains 41 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 357.5 Alcoholic polyneuropathy A condition where damage to the peripheral nervous system (including the peripheral elements of the autonomic nervous system) is associated with chronic ingestion of alcoholic beverages. The disorder may be caused by a direct effect of alcohol, an associated nutritional deficiency, or a combination of factors. Clinical manifestations include variable degrees of weakness; ATROPHY; PARESTHESIAS; pain; loss of reflexes; sensory loss; diaphoresis; and postural hypotension. (From Arch Neurol 1995;52(1):45-51; Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1146) 357.5 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 357.5 contains 4 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 357.6 Polyneuropathy due to drugs 357.6 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 357.6 contains 6 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 357.7 Polyneuropathy due to other toxic agents 357.7 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 357.7 contains 15 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 357.8 Other inflammatory and toxic neuropathy 357.8 is a non-specific code that cannot be used to specify a diagnosis ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 357.81 Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuritis 357.81 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 357.81 contains 4 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 357.82 Critical illness polyneuropathy 357.82 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 357.82 contains 3 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 357.89 Other inflammatory and toxic neuropathy 357.89 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 357.89 contains 3 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 357.9 Unspecified inflammatory and toxic neuropathies 357.9 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis
