8A45.41 Demyelination due to systemic lupus erythematosus

International Classification of Diseases for Mortality and Morbidity Statistics, 11th Revision, v2024-01

Among the 12 systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)-related central nervous system (CNS) syndromes defined by the American College of Rheumatology (ACR), demyelinating syndrome and myelopathy are two of the less prevalent and more poorly understood ones. One important issue concerning demyelinating disease in SLE is that it can be easily misdiagnosed with other central nervous system demyelinating disorders such as multiple sclerosis (MS).
