Lobulated, fused and horseshoe kidney. Q63.1 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Horseshoe kidney. Jump to navigation Jump to search. Horseshoe kidney, also known as ren arcuatus (in Latin), renal fusion or super kidney, is a congenital disorder affecting about 1 in 500 people that is more common in men, often asymptomatic, and usually diagnosed incidentally.
Q63.1 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of lobulated, fused and horseshoe kidney. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis. Documentation insufficient to determine if the condition was present at the time of inpatient admission.
| ICD-10 from 2011 - 2016. Q63.1 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of lobulated, fused and horseshoe kidney.
Horseshoe kidney when the 2 kidneys join (fuse) together at the bottom to form a U shape like a horseshoe. It is also known as renal fusion. The condition occurs when a baby is growing in the womb, as the baby's kidneys move into place. Horseshoe kidney can occur alone or with other disorders.

Caliectasis is a condition that affects the calyces in your kidneys. Your calyces are where urine collection begins. Each kidney has 6 to 10 calyces. They're on the outer edges of your kidneys. With caliectasis, the calyces become dilated and swollen with extra fluid.
A urinoma is a mass formed by encapsulated extravasated urine. It may follow closed renal injury, surgical operation or arise spontaneously in the presence of obstruction. The essential factors are continued renal function, rupture of the collecting system and distal obstruction.

An extrarenal pelvis is a normal anatomical variant that is predominantly outside the renal sinus and is larger and more distensible than an intrarenal pelvis that is surrounded by sinus fat. While the exact incidence is not known, it is estimated to be seen in up to 10% of the population 1.

Hydronephrosis is a condition where one or both kidneys become stretched and swollen as the result of a build-up of urine inside them. It can affect people of any age and is sometimes spotted in unborn babies during routine pregnancy ultrasound scans.

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 Q63.1 and a single ICD9 code, 753.3 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
Diagnosis. Horseshoe kidneys are commonly diagnosed incidentally on abdominal imaging. The diagnosis can be made with many different imaging modalities such as ultrasound, intravenous pyelogram, CT, and MRI.
Kidneys are normally located in the retroperitoneal space between the T12 and L3 vertebrae after ascending from the pelvis during development to rest underneath the adrenal glands. In patients with this condition, the horseshoe kidney ascent is commonly arrested by the inferior mesenteric artery due to the central fusion of the kidneys. However, this is present in only 40% of cases, and, in 20% of cases, the fused kidney remains in the pelvis. Its ascension may also be restricted by its own renal artery. Additionally, during normal development, the kidneys undergo a 90 degree medial rotation while ascending. However, due to the renal fusion, this rotation is impaired resulting in abnormal placement of the ureters. This in turn can lead to urinary stasis and drainage issues. Furthermore, approximately 70% of kidneys in normal individuals are supplied by a single renal artery with the remaining 30% having embryonic collateral or accessory arteries. With horseshoe kidneys, the majority are supplied by derivatives of the abdominal aorta or common illiac arteries depending on the final position of the kidneys.
However, presentation is often non-specific. Approximately a third of patients with horseshoe kidneys remain asymptomatic throughout their entire life with over 50% of patients having no medical issues related to their renal fusion when followed for a 25 year period.
Different exposures to the developing fetus such as different teratogens (e. g. thalidomide, ethanol, ACE inhibitors, cocaine, gentamicin, corticosteroids, NSAIDs, and vitamin A) have been hypothesized.
Kidney obstruction – commonly causes ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJ) which is a blockage at the area where the ureter connects to the renal pelvis. This can lead to urinary stasis which can promote infection and stone formation.
Associated conditions. Patients with a horseshoe kidney can develop sequelae related to the abnormal anatomy and present with symptoms related to them. The general categories a horseshoe kidney may increase the risk for fall under the following categories:
Extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy, a possible treatment for kidney stones, can be less effective in patients with horseshoe kidneys due to the abnormal anatomy causing difficulties with localizing the energy to the stones.
