G82 Paraplegia and tetraplegia
Note: For primary coding, this category is to be used only when the listed conditions are reported without further specification, or are stated to be old or longstanding but of unspecified cause. The category is also for use in multiple coding to identify these conditions resulting from any cause.
Excludes: congenital and infantile cerebral palsy ( G80.- )
G82.0 Flaccid paraplegia

G82.5 Tetraplegia, unspecified
Quadriplegia NOS

G83 Other paralytic syndromes
Note: For primary coding, this category is to be used only when the listed conditions are reported without further specification, or are stated to be old or longstanding but of unspecified cause. The category is also for use in multiple coding to identify these conditions resulting from any cause.
