1 - Acute kidney failure with acute cortical necrosis.
Renal (kidney) cortical necrosis is death of the tissue in the outer part of the kidney (cortex) that results from blockage of the small arteries that supply blood to the cortex and that causes acute kidney injury. Usually the cause is a major, catastrophic disorder that decreases blood pressure.
Renal cortical necrosis is a rare cause of acute renal failure secondary to ischemic necrosis of the renal cortex. The lesions are usually caused by significantly diminished renal arterial perfusion secondary to vascular spasm, microvascular injury, or intravascular coagulation.
Acute tubular necrosis (ATN) is a kidney disorder involving damage to the tubule cells of the kidneys, which can lead to acute kidney failure. The tubules are tiny ducts in the kidneys that help filter the blood when it passes through the kidneys.
Cortical scarring was defined as a defect in the normal reniform outline. A photon deficient area was defined as a focal or diffuse area of reduced uptake of the radionuclide with preservation of the normal reniform outline.
Bilateral renal cortical thinning (or thinning of the kidney cortex) means that the kidney has been scarred and the amount of functioning tissue (functioning nephrons) in the kidney cortex has decreased.
Bilateral cortical necrosis is a rare, often irreversible form of acute tubular necrosis. In a study on acute renal failure from north India, the incidence reported was 3.8%. [1] Only eight cases of bilateral cortical necrosis following acute pancreatitis were reported so far in the literature.
Cortical laminar necrosis (CLN) is a permanent brain injury radiologically characterised by high intensity cortical lesions on T1 weighted MRI images which follow the gyral anatomy of the cerebral cortex.
RCN is irreversible lesion leading to total loss of kidney function and end stage kidney failure in complete variety of cortical necrosis.
Acute tubular necrosis (ATN) is the most common cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) in the renal category (that is, AKI in which the pathology lies within the kidney itself). The term ATN is actually a misnomer, as there is minimal cell necrosis and the damage is not limited to tubules.
What is acute tubular necrosis? Acute tubular necrosis is a condition that causes the lack of oxygen and blood flow to the kidneys, damaging them. Tube-shaped structures in the kidneys, called tubules, filter out waste products and fluid. These structures are damaged in acute tubular necrosis.
Acute tubular necrosis is kidney injury caused by damage to the kidney tubule cells (kidney cells that reabsorb fluid and minerals from urine as it forms). Common causes are low blood flow to the kidneys (such as caused by low blood pressure), drugs that damage the kidneys, and severe bodywide infections.
The cornerstones of renal cortical necrosis therapy are to restore hemodynamic stability, institute early dialytic therapy, and treat the underlying cause of the disease. Most cases of renal cortical necrosis initially require intensive care.
RCN is irreversible lesion leading to total loss of kidney function and end stage kidney failure in complete variety of cortical necrosis. However, recovery of renal function is variable in the incomplete type of cortical necrosis depending upon the amount of necrosed nephron in the kidney.
Key Points. Renal cortical necrosis is rare, typically occurring in neonates and in pregnant or postpartum women with sepsis or pregnancy complications. Suspect the diagnosis in patients at risk who develop typical symptoms (eg, gross hematuria, flank pain, decreased urine output, fever, hypertension).
cortex, in plants, tissue of unspecialized cells lying between the epidermis (surface cells) and the vascular, or conducting, tissues of stems and roots. Cortical cells may contain stored carbohydrates or other substances such as resins, latex, essential oils, and tannins.
renal cortical necrosis (rcn, also diffuse bilateral renal cortical necrosis (brcn), diffuse cortical necrosis, acute cortical necrosis, or acute kidney failure with acute cortical necrosis) is a rare cause of acute kidney failure.

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 N17.1 and a single ICD9 code, 584.6 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
