Clinical Terms in This Code Range
Definitions from the National Library of Medicine for conditions coded in the G60 range.
Hereditary Sensory and Motor Neuropathy
A group of slowly progressive inherited disorders affecting motor and sensory peripheral nerves. Subtypes include HMSNs I-VII. HMSN I and II both refer to CHARCOT-MARIE-TOOTH DISEASE. HMSN III refers to hypertrophic neuropathy of infancy. HMSN IV refers to REFSUM DISEASE. HMSN V refers to a condition marked by a hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy associated with spastic paraplegia (see SPASTIC PARAPLEGIA, HEREDITARY). HMSN VI refers to HMSN associated with an inherited optic atrophy (OPTIC ATROPHIES, HEREDITARY), and HMSN VII refers to HMSN associated with retinitis pigmentosa. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1343)
Refsum Disease
An autosomal recessive familial disorder that usually presents in childhood with POLYNEUROPATHY; SENSORINEURAL HEARING LOSS; ICHTHYOSIS; ATAXIA; RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA; and CARDIOMYOPATHIES. (From Joynt, Clinical Neurology, 1991, Ch37, p58-9; Rev Med Interne 1996;17(5):391-8) This condition can be caused by mutation in the genes encoding peroxisomal phytanoyl-CoA hydroxylase or proteins associated peroxisomal membrane, leading to impaired catabolism of PHYTANIC ACID in PEROXISOMES.
About the G60 Code Range
These conditions affect peripheral nerves and include hereditary neuropathy and neuropathy with no identified cause, called idiopathic neuropathy.
G60 separates hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy (G60.0), Refsum's disease (G60.1), and neuropathy associated with hereditary ataxia (G60.2). It also identifies idiopathic progressive neuropathy (G60.3), other hereditary and idiopathic neuropathies (G60.8), and unspecified hereditary and idiopathic neuropathy (G60.9).
