Vesicoureteral-reflux. N13.7 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM N13.7 became effective on October 1, 2018. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of N13.7 - other international versions of ICD-10 N13.7 may differ.
Vesicoureteral-reflux without reflux nephropathy. N13.71 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Vesicoureteral-reflux, unspecified. Retrograde flow of urine from the urinary bladder into the ureter. This is often due to incompetence of the vesicoureteral valve leading to ascending bacterial infection into the kidney.
Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is a condition in which urine flows backward from the bladder to one or both ureters and sometimes to the kidneys. VUR is most common in infants and young children. Most children don't have long-term problems from VUR.
ICD-10 code N13. 722 for Vesicoureteral-reflux with reflux nephropathy without hydroureter, bilateral is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the genitourinary system .
722 - Vesicoureteral-reflux with reflux nephropathy without hydroureter, bilateral.
VUR that affects only one ureter and kidney is called unilateral reflux. VUR that affects both ureters and kidneys is called a bilateral reflux. Looking at the medical words “vesicoureteral reflux,” “vescio” refers to the bladder while “ureteral” refers to the ureters.

ICD-10 code N13. 4 for Hydroureter is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the genitourinary system .

Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is commonly identified in pediatric patients and can be associated with reflux nephropathy (RN), chronic kidney disease (CKD), and rarely end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
VUR is a condition that affects about 1 to 3 percent of all children. However, there are certain groups of children in whom VUR is much more common, including: children who have hydronephrosis or excessive fluid in the kidneys.
Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is the backup of urine from the bladder (organ that stores urine) into the ureter (tube that carries urine from the kidney to the bladder) during urination. VUR may result in urine reflux into the renal pelvis, causing distention (hydronephrosis) and kidney damage.

74450 (Urethrocystography, retrograde, radiological supervision and interpretation) is the correct code to use for the initial reading of an x-ray image in which the urologist injected contrast media into the lower urinary tract, including the bladder and urethra.
Nephropathy is the deterioration of kidney function. The final stage of nephropathy is called kidney failure, end-stage renal disease, or ESRD. According to the CDC, diabetes is the most common cause of ESRD.
The ICD code N137 is used to code Reflux nephropathy. Reflux nephropathy is kidney damage (nephropathy) due to urine flowing backward (reflux) from the bladder toward the kidneys; the latter is called vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). Longstanding VUR can result in small and scarred kidneys during the first five years of life in affected children.
