2018/2019 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code G23.8. Other specified degenerative diseases of basal ganglia. G23.8 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
[Bilateral hypodensity of the basal ganglia. Clinico-evolutionary correlation in children] The presence of SBHBG in a patient makes extensive study necessary to find the aetiology. It is a nonspecific finding, usually of metabolic origin and with little correlation with the clinical condition.
Characteristic features of basal ganglia (i.e., extrapyramidal) injury involve the following involuntary movement disorders: Parkinsonism – combination of resting tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia/akinesia, and postural abnormalities. Athetosis – slow continuous, writhing movements of the fingers, hands, face, and throat.

G93. 89 - Other Specified Disorders of Brain [Internet]. In: ICD-10-CM.
Definition. A brain lesion is an abnormality seen on a brain-imaging test, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computerized tomography (CT). On CT or MRI scans, brain lesions appear as dark or light spots that don't look like normal brain tissue.
Intracranial space occupying lesions are tumors or abscesses present within the cranium or skull. These lesions put pressure on the adjacent brain tissue causing its damage.
the brainThe basal ganglia, or basal nuclei, are a group of subcortical structures found deep within the white matter of the brain. They form a part of the extrapyramidal motor system and work in tandem with the pyramidal and limbic systems.
The structures generally included in the basal ganglia are the caudate nucleus, putamen, and globus pallidus in the cerebrum, the substantia nigra in the midbrain, and the subthalamic nucleus in the diencephalon. The word basal refers to the fact that the basal ganglia are found near the base, or bottom, of the brain.
Basal ganglia hemorrhage is a common form of intracerebral hemorrhage, and usually as a result of poorly controlled long-standing hypertension. The stigmata of chronic hypertensive encephalopathy are often present (see cerebral microhemorrhages). Other sites of hypertensive hemorrhages are the pons and the cerebellum.

Idiopathic Basal Ganglia Calcification, also known as Fahr disease, is a rare, genetically dominant, inherited neurological disorder characterized by abnormal deposits of calcium in areas of the brain that control movement.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code G23.8 and a single ICD9 code, 333.0 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
