Endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseasesNote- All neoplasms, whether functionally active or not, are classified in Chapter 2. Appropriate codes in this chapter (i.e. E05.8, E07.0, E16-E31, E34.-) may be used as additional codes to indicate either functional activity by neoplasms and ectopic endocrine tissue or hyperfunction and hypofunction of endocrine glands associated with neoplasms and other conditions classified elsewhere.

ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code E78
Disorders of lipoprotein metabolism and other lipidemias
2016 2017 2018 2019 Non-Billable/Non-Specific Code
- Familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency
Clinical Information
- A genetic disorder of lipoprotein metabolism caused by mutations in the lpl and apolipoprotein (apo) c-ii genes. It is characterized by increased levels of chylomicrons and triglycerides in the blood.
- An inherited condition due to a deficiency of either lipoprotein lipase or apolipoprotein c-ii (a lipase-activating protein). The lack of lipase activities results in inability to remove chylomicrons and triglycerides from the blood which has a creamy top layer after standing.
- Intestinal fat transport defect with hypobetalipoproteinemia and accumulation of apolipoprotein b-like protein in intestinal cells, deficient blood apolipoproteins, and avitaminosis e manifested by malnutrition, steatorrhea, and growth and mental retardation. Some clinical (but not biochemical) manifestations may disappear later in life.
- Rare familial condition characterized by massive chylomicronemia and decreased levels of other lipoproteins; due to deficiency of lipoprotein lipase, an alkaline triglyceride hydrolase which catalyzes an important step in the extrahepatic removal of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins from the blood.
