ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code Z90.5 [convert to ICD-9-CM] Acquired absence of kidney History of nephrectomy; History of nephrectomy (removal of kidney); History of partial nephrectomy; History of partial nephrectomy (kidney removal); History of radical nephrectomy; History of radical nephrectomy (total removal of kidney)
ICD 10 Coding for Kidney Transplant Kidney transplant status Z94.0 Patients who have undergone kidney transplant may still have some form of chronic kidney disease because the kidney transplant may not fully restore kidney function. Therefore, the presence of CKD alone does not constitute transplant complication.
Z90.722 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM Z90.722 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of Z90.722 - other international versions of ICD-10 Z90.722 may differ.

Total nephrectomy is done if the kidney does not work well enough or if there is a large tumor (mass) in the kidney that must be removed. The surgeon will tie off the blood supply to the kidney and the urine tube that goes to the bladder. Then he or she will take out the entire kidney and its attached urine tube.
The following CPT codes are currently in place for nephrectomy:nephroureterectomy (50548)radical nephrectomy (50545)partial nephrectomy (50543)
What is a solitary kidney? If you have only one kidney, that kidney is called a solitary kidney. This condition is different from having a solitary functioning kidney, in which you have two kidneys and only one is functioning.
21 and E11. 22 have an excludes 1 notes therefore they can be coded together as long as a separate renal manifestation is present, I would just be careful when coding the actual renal condition as there are some renal codes that are excluded when using CKD codes.
Renal agenesis is a condition in which a newborn is missing one or both kidneys. Unilateral renal agenesis (URA) is the absence of one kidney. Bilateral renal agenesis (BRA) is the absence of both kidneys.
CPT 50432 Placement of nephrostomy catheter, percutaneous, including diagnostic nephrostogram and/or ureterogram when performed, imaging guidance (eg, ultrasound and/or fluoroscopy) and all associated radiologic supervision and interpretation.
A nephrostomy (neff ROSS toh mee) tube is a tube that is put into the kidney to drain urine directly from the kidney. Urine is made by the kidneys and normally drains down into the bladder through tubes called ureters (YOUR ett uhrs), (see Picture 1).
A percutaneous nephrostomy catheter is a small flexible, rubber tube that is placed through your skin into the kidney to drain your urine.

This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code V45.73 was previously used, Z90.5 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
When kidneys cease to filter wastes and extra fluid from the bloodstream, renal failure is considered to be permanent and consideration must be given to hemodialysis and/or kidney transplantation. A common complication of kidney transplant is rejection of the transplanted organ.
Kidney transplantation is a treatment option for most patients with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). The procedure may be deceased-donor (cadaveric) or living-donor transplantation. Living-donor renal transplants may be genetically related (living-related) or non-related (living-unrelated) transplants.
A kidney transplant may not fully restore function to the kidney, and some residual kidney disease could be present. Without the link provided by the physician, coders should report V42.7 with an additional code for the CKD. Physicians may also document in the medical record of the post-kidney transplant recipient ESRD.
Therefore, the presence of CKD alone does not constitute transplant complication. Assign the appropriate N18 code for the patient’s CKD and code Z94.0, kidney transplant status.
