title: [Codification of psychosocial diagnoses].
abstract: Psychosocial pathology accounts for a significant proportion of pediatric practice. Its registry, however, is usually scanty or erratic. The purpose of this update was to collect and define psychosocial diagnoses within the ICM-9-CM coding system in order to aid pediatric practice and to offer interpretations of diagnoses, which would aid their coding.
