Children with a duplex kidney (also called a duplicated collecting system) have two ureters coming from a single kidney. These two ureters can drain independently into the bladder or connect and drain as a single ureter into the bladder. Duplex kidneys can occur in one or both kidneys.

ICD-10 code N28. 89 for Other specified disorders of kidney and ureter is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the genitourinary system .
Duplex kidney, also known as duplicated ureters or duplicated collecting system, is the most common birth defect related to the urinary tract. This occurs due to an incomplete fusion of the upper and lower pole of the kidney which creates two separate drainage systems from the kidney.
ICD-10 code N20. 1 for Calculus of ureter is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the genitourinary system .
Pyonephrosis—pus in the renal pelvis—results from urinary tract obstruction in the presence of pyelonephritis. Purulent exudate (inflammatory cells, infectious organisms, and necrotic, sloughed urothelium) collects in the hydronephrotic collecting system ("pus under pressure") and forms an abscess.
Urinoma is a rare and unique condition that refers to extravasation of urine from a disruption of the urinary collecting system at any level from the calix to the urethra [1, 2]. It is rare in that ureteral injury comprises less than one percent of blunt or penetrating genitourinary trauma.

Listen to pronunciation. (REE-nul kuh-LEK-ting TOO-byool) The last part of a long, twisting tube that collects urine from the nephrons (cellular structures in the kidney that filter blood and form urine) and moves it into the renal pelvis and ureters. Also called collecting duct.
Renal collecting ducts are microscopic passages that connect to multiple nephrons. Tubular fluid passes through the collecting ducts to reach the calyces and renal pelvis. While traveling through the collecting ducts, the composition of tubular fluid undergoes alterations.
A bilateral duplex collecting system is an unusual renal tract abnormality. Duplication occurs when two separate ureteric buds arise from a single Wolffian duct [1].
Hydronephrosis is the swelling of a kidney due to a build-up of urine. It happens when urine cannot drain out from the kidney to the bladder from a blockage or obstruction. Hydronephrosis can occur in one or both kidneys. The main function of the urinary tract is to remove wastes and fluid from the body.
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 Q64.8 and a single ICD9 code, 753.9 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
Most kidney diseases attack the nephrons. This damage may leave kidneys unable to remove wastes. Causes can include genetic problems, injuries, or medicines. You have a higher risk of kidney disease if you have diabetes, high blood pressure, or a close family member with kidney disease. Chronic kidney disease damages the nephrons slowly over several years. Other kidney problems include
Your doctor can do blood and urine tests to check if you have kidney disease. If your kidneys fail, you will need dialysis or a kidney transplant.
You have two kidneys, each about the size of your fist. They are near the middle of your back, just below the rib cage. Inside each kidney there are about a million tiny structures called nephrons. They filter your blood. They remove wastes and extra water, which become urine. The urine flows through tubes called ureters. It goes to your bladder, which stores the urine until you go to the bathroom.

Duplex Kidney. Duplex kidney, also called duplicated ureters, is a problem with the urinary tract where there are two ureters draining urine from a single kidney. It’s more common in females than males and it’s an unpreventable birth defect. There are surgeries available to fix the problem, but most issues simply resolve on their own.
About 0.7% of the healthy adult population and 2% to 4% of patients with urinary tract issues have duplicated ureters. Incomplete duplication is three times more common than complete duplication, which is estimated to appear in about one in every 500 people.
In addition, urine can reflux back toward the kidney through the second ureter, which often has a weak valve because it joins the bladder in an abnormal location. A number of symptoms can occur when one of the ureters is ectopic, which means it drains to somewhere other than the bladder.
Incomplete: Two separate ureters are attached to the same kidney but join together at some distance away from the kidney to form a single ureter that enters the bladder.
Ureteral reimplantation: The ectopic ureter is split near the bottom and sewn into your bladder. This allows urine to drain correctly and not flow backwards.
Although duplex kidney (duplicated ureters) isn’t a life-threatening condition, or one that typically causes symptoms, it may require treatment. Duplex kidney can happen alongside a number of other conditions related to the urinary tract.
There is no known way to prevent a duplex kidney, as it results from a birth defect. However, the previously discussed surgeries can be performed to relieve symptoms and protect the kidneys from damage.
Duplication of the renal collecting system is recognized in approximately 1 : 4000 pregnancies and is more frequent in females. It disproportionately affects the left kidney, and is bilateral in 15% to 20% of cases. Ultrasound (US) may show dilatation of one or both renal pelves, with an intervening band of renal tissue.
Duplication of the renal collecting system, also termed duplex kidney, is one of the few renal anomalies more common in females. Duplex kidneys have an upper pole and a lower pole, called moieties, each drained by a ureter. Approximately one-third of the duplex kidney is drained by the upper pole ureter, with two-thirds drained by ...
If the duplication is partial, the ureters fuse to form a bifid ureter before emptying into the bladder. Complete duplication is often associated with a ureterocele, which is a cystic dilatation of the distal end of the ureter, usually within the bladder but occasionally at other sites along the genitourinary tract.
Those who come to attention prenatally or postnatally usually have a complication related to abnormal implantation of one or both ureters. The upper pole ureter may form a ureterocele within the bladder that causes obstruction, resulting in little or no function of the upper pole moiety.
Clinically significant duplication of the collecting system may manifest prenatally with upper pole hydronephrosis and dilatation of the upper pole ureter, lower pole hydronephrosis, or a ureterocele within the bladder.
Most cases do not manifest prenatally, and many remain undiagnosed throughout life, with no renal impairment. Affected children may present with urinary tract infection secondary to reflux. Less commonly, individuals may be found to have a duplex system during evaluation for hypertension or renal insufficiency.
Duplication is generally considered to be a sporadic anomaly, although an increased incidence has been described in some families, suggesting autosomal dominant inheritance with incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity.
Also in this section of CPT®, six codes were deleted (50392, 50393, 50394, 50398, 74475, and 74480) and two were revised: 50390 Aspiration and/or injection of renal cyst or pelvis by needle, percutaneous and 74425 Urography, antegrade (pyelostogram, nephrostogram, loopogram), radiological supervision and interpretation. Code 50390 is now used for placing a needle into a renal cyst to inject contrast or remove fluid. Code 74425 is still used to describe a nephrostogram, but only from a retrograde approach, as done via an ileal conduit, with injection code 50684 Injection procedure for ureterography or ureteropyelography through ureterostomy or indwelling ureteral catheter.
A renal collecting system consists of the renal calyces, renal pelvis, ureteropelvic junction, and the ureter all the way to the bladder. A duplicated collecting system is a normal variant that occurs in approximately 1 percent of the population.
Codes +50606, +50705, and +50706 require a base code, which can be any of the catheter placement, conversion, or exchange codes described above, as well as diagnostic nephrostogram codes 50430 and 50431.#N#+50606 describes an endoluminal biopsy (brush, needle, or alligator forceps) of the urinary collecting system (renal calyx, renal pelvis, or ureter). If a duplicated collecting system (e.g., bilateral ureters, duplicated ureters) is also biopsied, report +50606 a second time for the separate procedure.#N#+50705 describes ureteral embolization and is usually performed to treat a fistula or urinary leak due to an invasive malignancy. Once embolized, a permanent nephrostomy catheter will be necessary for urinary drainage. Ureteral embolization is coded once per ureter.#N#+50706 describes ureteroplasty (balloon dilation) of the ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) or the ureter for treatment of a stenosis or occlusion.#N#The three add-on procedure codes can be submitted once per day, per collecting system and can be performed via any percutaneous access (including a renal access, an ileal conduit, a cystostomy, a ureterostomy, and via a trans-urethral approach).#N#Example: The patient has a nephroureteral catheter in place via an ileal conduit. The patient has a known filling defect in the region of the UPJ, and is here for biopsy. The catheter is removed over a guidewire and a sheath is placed up to the abnormality. A brush biopsy is performed and sent for pathology (+50606). A new nephroureteral stent is placed over the wire via the ileal conduit (50688 Change of ureterostomy tube or externally accessible ureteral stent via ileal conduit, 75984 Change of percutaneous tube or drainage catheter with contrast monitoring (eg, genitourinary system, abscess), radiological supervision and interpretation ).#N#NOTE: This procedure is via an ileal conduit, not via the flank, which changes coding for urinary intervention.
50435 describes the exchange of a PCU catheter for a new nephrostomy catheter or the exchange of a nephroureteral catheter for a nephrostomy catheter and includes 50431 .
+50606 Endoluminal biopsy of ureter and/or renal pelvis, non-endoscopic, including imaging guidance (eg, ultrasound and/or fluoroscopy) and all associated radiological supervision and interpretation (List separately in addition to code for primary procedure)#N#+50705 Ureteral embolization or occlusion, including imaging guidance (eg, ultrasound and/or fluoroscopy) and all associated radiological supervision and interpretation (List separately in addition to code for primary procedure)#N#+50706 Balloon dilation, ureteral stricture, including imaging guidance (eg, ultrasound and/or fluoroscopy) and all associated radiological supervision and interpretation (List separately in addition to code for primary procedure)#N#The new codes were well thought out to cover the majority of performed urinary cases, and all include both the surgical and supervision and interpretation (S&I) components of the procedure. All procedures listed above also bundle the use of imaging guidance, including fluoroscopy, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).#N#New CPT® guidelines instruct us to code separately for each treated renal collecting system. A renal collecting system consists of the renal calyces, renal pelvis, ureteropelvic junction, and the ureter all the way to the bladder. A duplicated collecting system is a normal variant that occurs in approximately 1 percent of the population. This may result in two procedures of the same type for a single kidney (each treated, duplicate system is coded separately).
For 2016, the biggest CPT® coding changes affecting interventional radiology occur within the subspecialties of urinary, biliary, and neurologic intervention. This month, let’s focus on percutaneous urinary interventional coding, and in upcoming articles we’ll cover biliary and neurologic intervention codes.
Because imaging guidance is performed, be sure the ultrasound, CT, or MRI tech does not charge a guidance code when the access uses one of these imaging guidance modalities. Nephrostogram is bundled with the new nephrostomy catheter, nephroureteral catheter, and ureteral stent placement codes.
