Clinical Information
  • A group of congenital disorders of lipid metabolism, caused by loss of the normal peroxisomes. Signs and symptoms include developmental delays, mental retardation, facial abnormalities, hepatomegaly, and hypotonia
  • A heterogeneous group of inherited metabolic disorders marked by absent or dysfunctional peroxisomes. Peroxisomal enzymatic abnormalities may be single or multiple. Biosynthetic peroxisomal pathways are compromised, including the ability to synthesize ether lipids and to oxidize long-chain fatty acid precursors. Diseases in this category include zellweger syndrome; infantile refsum disease; rhizomelic chondrodysplasia (chondrodysplasia punctata, rhizomelic); hyperpipecolic acidemia; neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy; and adrenoleukodystrophy (x-linked). Neurologic dysfunction is a prominent feature of most peroxisomal disorders
  • A syndrome combining the characteristics of adrenocortical insufficiency (addison disease) with those of cerebral sclerosis (schilder disease). Skin bronzing and sclerosis of the brain and demyelination are the principal manifestations
  • Autosomal recessive peroxisomal disorder, also known as zellweger syndrome, that typically presents in the neonatal period and is usually fatal; clinical features include hypotonia, dysmorphic skull and facial bones, visual compromise, multifocal seizures, hepatomegaly, biliary dysgenesis, and swallowing difficulties; pathologically, there are migration deficits of the neocortex and degeneration of white matter tracts; zellweger-like syndrome refers to conditions that phenotypically resemble neonatal zellweger syndrome, but occur in childhood or adulthood
  • Childhood genetic disease, transmitted as an x-linked recessive trait, characterized by diffuse abnormality of cerebral white matter and adrenal atrophy; mental deterioration progresses to dementia, aphasia, apraxia, dysarthria, and loss of vision

ICD-9-CM codes are used in medical billing and coding to describe diseases, injuries, symptoms and conditions. ICD-9-CM 277.86 is one of thousands of ICD-9-CM codes used in healthcare. Although ICD-9-CM and CPT codes are largely numeric, they differ in that CPT codes describe medical procedures and services. Can't find a code?
