Urologic etiologies for hematuria include malignancy, infection, inflammation, calculus disease, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and congenital or acquired anatomic abnormalities. 3 Hematuria may also be confused with gynecological sources of bleeding, myoglobinuria, or pigmentation of the urine from the ingestion of certain foods and drugs.
Meanwhile, the DETECT I study recruited 3,556 patients presenting with hematuria (30.3% MH, 69.7% GH), of whom urine cytology was performed in 567 (15.9%). 115 A positive/atypical urinary cytology was reported to have a sensitivity of 57.7%, specificity 94.9%, PPV 35.7% and NPV 97.9%, with an ROC of 0.688.

ICD-10 code N35. 9 for Urethral stricture, unspecified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the genitourinary system .
Gross hematuria is when a person can see the blood in his or her urine, and microscopic hematuria is when a person cannot see the blood in his or her urine, yet a health care professional can see it under a microscope.
The ICD-9 code 599.0 is an unspecified urinary tract infection (ICD-10 N39.
Hematuria is blood in the urine. It may be visible or microscopic. It can be caused by a bleeding disorder or certain medications, or by stones, infection, or tumor. It may be due to injury to the kidneys, urinary tract, prostate, or genitals. Having blood in your urine doesn't always mean you have a medical problem.

Urologic etiologies for hematuria include malignancy, infection, inflammation, calculus disease, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and congenital or acquired anatomic abnormalities. 3 Hematuria may also be confused with gynecological sources of bleeding, myoglobinuria, or pigmentation of the urine from the ingestion of certain foods and drugs. When considering the risk of malignancy in patients with hematuria, a recent prospective observational study of over 3,500 patients referred for evaluation of hematuria noted a 10.0% rate of urinary tract cancer: 13.2% for patients with gross hematuria (GH) and 3.1% among patients with MH. 4 Similarly, aggregate data from 17 prior MH screening studies published between 1980 to 2011 identified in the 2012 AUA Guideline reported a urinary tract malignancy rate of 2.6% (range 0% to 25.8%), the vast majority of which were bladder cancers. 2 Eleven more contemporary studies enrolling MH patients in the current evidence base dating from 2010 to 2019 reported an aggregate urinary tract malignancy rate of 1% (range 0.3% to 6.25%), which varied according to the presence or absence of risk factors for malignancy. 5-15
22. For patients with a prior negative hematuria evaluation who develop gross hematuria, significant increase in degree of microhematuria, or new urologic symptoms, clinicians should initiate further evaluation. (Moderate Recommendation; Evidence Level: Grade C)
For example, one study found that less than 50% of patients with hematuria diagnosed in a primary care setting were subsequently referred for urologic evaluation. 19 Moreover, in a series of patients presenting with hematuria who had known risk factors for bladder cancer, only 23% received any type of imaging, and only 13% underwent cystoscopy. 10 The underuse of cystoscopy, and the tendency to use only imaging for evaluation, is particularly concerning when one considers that the vast majority of cancers diagnosed among persons with hematuria are bladder cancers, optimally detected with cystoscopy. 7,8,10,13-15,20-23
Hematuria remains one of the most common urologic diagnoses, estimated to account for over 20% of urology evaluations. 1 Indeed, screening studies have noted a prevalence range of microhematuria (MH) among healthy volunteers of 2.4%-31.1% depending on the specific population evaluated. 2
(Strong Recommendation; Evidence Level: Grade C )
Although various thresholds may be utilized, the Panel encourages the use of ≥3 RBC/HPF as a minimum reporting threshold, consistent with prior AUA guidelines as well as newer data subsequently highlighted. 2 While several automated methods for assessing hematuria, including the use of flow cytometry, have diffused into clinical practice, at present, there is insufficient evidence regarding the accuracy of these devices in comparison to microscopic evaluation. As such, microscopic quantification remains the referent standard for defining hematuria. 39

The CodingIntel Guide to Hierarchical Condition Categories provides a comprehensive list of HCC and Risk Adjusted Diagnosis Coding resources available on CodingIntel.
An example is patient had CVA listed in the PMH and current encounter is for thigh pain without known injury. There could be a correlation to a thrombosis or blood clot that the physician must consider. The physician does not document this correlation, however the old CVA could affect treatment or care. Coding history of CVA code as a secondary would give a clear picture.”
