F84.5 Asperger’s Syndrome. A disorder of uncertain nosological validity, characterized by the same kind of qualitative abnormalities of reciprocal social interaction that typify autism, together with a restricted, stereotyped, repetitive repertoire of interests and activities.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a genetic condition that causes tumours to grow along your nerves. The tumours are usually non-cancerous (benign) but may cause a range of symptoms. Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) is much less common than NF1. It's covered separately as it has different symptoms and causes.
A group of disorders characterized by an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance with high rates of spontaneous mutation and multiple neurofibromas or neurilemmomas.
Neurofibromatosis (NF), a type of phakomatosis or syndrome with neurological and cutaneous manifestations, is a rare genetic disorder that typically causes benign tumors of the nerves and growths in other parts of the body, including the skin.
ICD-10 code Q85. 01 for Neurofibromatosis, type 1 is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Congenital malformations, deformations and chromosomal abnormalities .
There are three types of neurofibromatosis: neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1), neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2) and schwannomatosis. NF1 is usually diagnosed in childhood, while NF2 and schwannomatosis are usually diagnosed in early adulthood.
Mean and median ages at death for persons with NF1 were 54.4 and 59 years, respectively, compared with 70.1 and 74 years in the general population.
Discussion. Neurofibromatosis type 1 is a relatively common autosomal dominant disorder. It is well known that NF1 patients have an increased risk of developing a variety of benign and malignant tumors, but its association with autoimmune diseases has been rarely reported (1-3).
Although neurofibromatosis is a serious condition, the Social Security Administration (SSA) does not specifically list the disorder as a disability. But, the symptoms that accompany the condition can be reviewed for benefits.
Most neurofibromas occur in association with a genetic disorder called neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). This condition can lead to multiple neurofibromas and other symptoms. A person with NF might have a few neurofibromas, or hundreds. Solitary neurofibromas can also occur in people who don't have NF.
Neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) is the most common of the three conditions. Although many people with NF1 inherit the gene that causes the condition, between 30 and 50 percent of cases arise from a spontaneous genetic mutation in the NF1 gene.
Most people with NF1 will develop regular neurofibromas, but only a third of all people with NF1 will have a plexiform neurofibroma. You may want to ask your doctor if any of your tumors are a plexiform, so you know the difference.
Mean and median ages at death for persons with NF1 were 54.4 and 59 years, respectively, compared with 70.1 and 74 years in the general population.
In most cases, symptoms of NF1 are relatively mild, allowing patients to live normal and productive lives. However, the disorder can also be debilitating and, in some cases, life-threatening.
The NF1 gene makes a protein called neurofibromin, which regulates cell division in the nervous system and functions as a kind of molecular brake to keep cells from growing out of control. The gene for NF2 is located on chromosome 22. The NF2 gene product is a tumor-suppressor protein (called merlin or schwannomin).
While there is no treatment that can reverse NF1, its signs and symptoms can be addressed. Tumors, in particular, may warrant chemotherapy, radiation, surgery or a combination of treatments. In about 60% of people with NF1, symptoms are mild and can be monitored without the need for treatment.
Peripheral and central nervous system neoplasms occur frequently, especially optic nerve glioma and neurofibrosarcoma. Nf1 is caused by mutations which inactivate the nf1 gene (genes, neurofibromatosis 1) on chromosome 17q. The incidence of learning disabilities is also elevated in this condition. (from Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp1014-18) there is overlap of clinical features with noonan syndrome in a syndrome called neurofibromatosis-noonan syndrome. Both the ptpn11 and nf1 gene products are involved in the signal transduction pathway of ras (ras proteins).
They can develop anywhere along the peripheral nerve fibers. Neurofibromas can become quite large, causing a major disfigurement, eroding bone, and compressing various peripheral nerve structures. Type 1 neurofibromatosis has dominant inheritance, with a gene locus on the proximal long arm of chromosome 17.
Both the ptpn11 and nf1 gene products are involved in the signal transduction pathway of ras (ras proteins). Neurofibromatosis is a genetic disorder of the nervous system. It mainly affects how nerve cells form and grow. It causes tumors to grow on nerves.
Nf1 is caused by mutations which inactivate the nf1 gene (genes, neurofibromatosis 1) on chromosome 17q. The incidence of learning disabilities is also elevated in this condition.

type 1 (nf1) causes skin changes and deformed bones and usually starts at birth. type 2 (nf2) causes hearing loss, ringing in the ears and poor balance. It often starts in the teen years. schwannomatosis causes intense pain. It is the rarest type.

Diagnosis is based on the combination of a lack of any clinically significant general delay in language or cognitive development plus, as with autism, the presence of qualitative deficiencies in reciprocal social interaction and restricted, repetitive, stereotyped patterns of behaviour, interests, and activities.
The formal diagnosis of Asperger’s Syndrome rests on these symptoms, which can be evaluated by psychiatrists and other mental health professionals.

Most individuals are of normal general intelligence but it is common for them to be markedly c lumsy; the condition occurs predominately in boys (in a ratio of about eight boys to one girl). It seems highly likely that at least some cases represent mild varieties of autism, but it is uncertain whether or not that is so for all.
The ICD code F845 is used to code Asperger syndrome. Asperger syndrome (AS), also known as Asperger's syndrome, Asperger disorder (AD) or simply Asperger's, is an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) that is characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction and nonverbal communication, alongside restricted and repetitive patterns ...
The diagnosis of Asperger's was eliminated in the 2013 fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) and replaced by a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder on a severity scale.
This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code F84.5 and a single ICD9 code, 299.81 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
It differs from other autism spectrum disorders by its relative preservation of linguistic and cognitive development. Although not required for diagnosis, physical clumsiness and atypical (peculiar or odd) use of language are frequently reported.
