N13.731 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of vesicoureteral-reflux with reflux nephropathy with hydroureter, unilateral. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.


The ICD code N137 is used to code Reflux nephropathy

Reflux nephropathy is kidney damage (nephropathy) due to urine flowing backward (reflux) from the bladder toward the kidneys; the latter is called vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). Longstanding VUR can result in small and scarred kidneys during the first five years of life in affected children. The end results of reflux nephropathy can include high blood pressure, excessive protein loss in the urine, and eventually kidney failure.
