These terms are the conditions for which that code is to be used. The terms may be synonyms of the code title, or, in the case of "other specified" codes, the terms are a list of the various conditions assigned to that code. The inclusion terms are not necessarily exhaustive. Additional terms found only in the Alphabetic Index may also be assigned to a code.

Clinical InformationClinical
Lewy Body Disease
a neurodegenerative disease characterized by dementia, mild parkinsonism, and fluctuations in attention and alertness. the neuropsychiatric manifestations tend to precede the onset of bradykinesia, muscle rigidity, and other extrapyramidal signs. delusions and visual hallucinations are relatively frequent in this condition. histologic examination reveals lewy bodies in the cerebral cortex and brain stem. senile plaques and other pathologic features characteristic of alzheimer disease may also be present.
