N26. 1 - Atrophy of kidney (terminal). ICD-10-CM.
Kidney atrophy means that the kidney is smaller than normal. This can happen for two basic reasons. The first is that part of the kidney does not develop from birth (called a congenital problem) making a small kidney. This type of kidney atrophy or small kidney usually does not need any special treatment.
Renal atrophy is a kidney disorder where the kidneys are relatively small in comparison to the gender, age and body weight of the patient. Congenital Renal Atrophy can also be known as Renal Hypoplasia, which can be described as Congenitally small kidneys with a reduced number of nephrons but normal architecture.
N28. 9, disorder of kidney and ureter, unspecified.
Even with an atrophic kidney, your kidneys may still be functioning well enough to get the job done. But if your kidneys are functioning at less than 10 to 15 percent, you're in kidney failure. That means you need treatment to do the work of the kidneys.
Hydronephrosis is swelling of one or both kidneys. Kidney swelling happens when urine can't drain from a kidney and builds up in the kidney as a result. This can occur from a blockage in the tubes that drain urine from the kidneys (ureters) or from an anatomical defect that doesn't allow urine to drain properly.
Renal hypoplasia (or kidney hypoplasia) means that part of a kidney does not fully develop in the womb. The kidney may be only slightly smaller than usual or it may be tiny. Because of its size, it may not work as well as a normal-sized kidney.
Treating atrophic kidney Kidney atrophy due to chronic kidney disease may require dialysis, and kidney atrophy caused by a chronic urinary tract infection would require antibiotics.
Kidney growth and compensatory hypertrophy occurs in healthy kidneys. (A) Nephrons are produced during kidney ontogeny, and subsequently grow during juvenile/adolescent life, thus exhibiting hypertrophy with age in response to changing demands on renal use and net nephron functionality throughout the kidneys.
N28. 9 - Disorder of kidney and ureter, unspecified | ICD-10-CM.
Chronic renal insufficiency causes a slow loss of renal function. It is basically the end stage of chronic renal disease, which means the patient often requires dialysis treatment.
Acute kidney failure and chronic kidney disease ICD-10-CM Code range N17-N19. The ICD-10 code range for Acute kidney failure and chronic kidney disease N17-N19 is medical classification list by the World Health Organization (WHO).

A term referring to any disease affecting the kidneys. Conditions in which the function of kidneys deteriorates suddenly in a matter of days or even hours. It is characterized by the sudden drop in glomerular filtration rate. Impairment of health or a condition of abnormal functioning of the kidney.
Your kidneys are two bean-shaped organs, each about the size of your fists. They are located near the middle of your back, just below the rib cage. Inside each kidney about a million tiny structures called nephrons filter blood. They remove waste products and extra water, which become urine.
This damage may leave kidneys unable to remove wastes. Causes can include genetic problems, injuries, or medicines. You are at greater risk for 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.
Nephroptosis (also called floating kidney or renal ptosis) is an abnormal condition in which the kidney drops down into the pelvis when the patient stands up. It is more common in women than in men. It has been one of the most controversial conditions among doctors in both its diagnosis and its treatments.

This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code N28.89 and a single ICD9 code, 593.89 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
N26.1 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of atrophy of kidney (terminal). A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
Glomerulosclerosis refers to a hardening of the glomerulus in the kidney. It is a general term to describe scarring of the kidneys' tiny blood vessels, the glomeruli, the functional units in the kidney that filter urine from the blood.
