ICD-10-CM Code for Hydronephrosis with ureteropelvic junction obstruction N13. 0.
The ureteropelvic junction is located where the pelvis of the kidney meets the ureter (the tube that drains urine into the bladder). The term ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction describes a blockage to this area.
Ureter and Bladder The ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) lies at about the L2 level (lower on standing), while the ureterovesical junction (UVJ) lies at the level of the ischial spine or, as shown on axial CT, at the level of the seminal vesicles (men) or the cervix (women).

Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction is a blockage in the area that connects the renal pelvis (part of the kidney) to one of the tubes (ureters) that move urine to the bladder. It generally occurs when a baby is still growing in the womb. This is called a congenital condition (present from birth).
Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction occurs when the area connecting the renal pelvis (part of the kidney) to one of two tubes that connect with the bladder (ureter) becomes blocked, causing urine to build up, which damages the kidneys.
The ureterovesical junction is located where the ureter (the tube that drains urine from the kidney) meets the bladder.
The vesicoureteric junction (VUJ), also known as the ureterovesicular junction (UVJ) is the most distal portion of the ureter, at the point where it connects to the urinary bladder.
About VUJO The Vesico-ureteric junction (VUJ, or sometimes called UVJ) is the area where the ureter joins the bladder.
A ureteral obstruction is a blockage in one or both of the tubes (ureters) that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. Ureteral obstruction can be cured. However, if it's not treated, symptoms can quickly move from mild — pain, fever and infection — to severe — loss of kidney function, sepsis and death.
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.
What is obstructive uropathy? Obstructive uropathy is when your urine can't flow (either partially or completely) through your ureter, bladder, or urethra due to some type of obstruction. Instead of flowing from your kidneys to your bladder, urine flows backward, or refluxes, into your kidneys.
