- Additional WHO coding guidance
- Episodic disorders in which both affective and schizophrenic symptoms are prominent but which do not justify a diagnosis of either schizophrenia or depressive or manic episodes. Other conditions in which affective symptoms are superimposed on a pre-existing schizophrenic illness, or co-exist or alternate with persistent delusional disorders of other kinds, are classified under F20- F29. Mood- incongruent psychotic symptoms in affective disorders do not justify a diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder.
