    What is the term flank pain?

    Definition – Flank pain is a sensation of discomfort, distress, or agony in the part of the body below the rib and above the ilium, generally beginning posteriorly or in the midaxillary line and resulting from the stimulation of specialized nerve endings upon distention of the ureter or renal capsule.

    What is pain referred to flank?

    Flank pain is pain on the side of the back just below the rib cage and above the waist. It can be on one or both sides. Flank pain has many possible causes, including a kidney stone, a urinary tract infection, or back strain.

    What is the differential diagnosis for flank pain?

    What causes flank pain? – Pain in the flanks can result from several injuries, conditions and diseases. The most common causes of flank pain include:

    Problems in the urinary tract: Severe kidney pain can result from several types of urinary tract infections (UTI), including a kidney infection and infection of the bladder. Infections and ureteral obstructions (like kidney stones) usually cause pain as well as other symptoms, such as fever, chills, bloating, vomiting and blood in the urine ( hematuria ). Dehydration can lead to urinary tract problems that cause flank pain. Back problems: Arthritis, fractures and structural problems in the spine can cause lower back pain, A herniated disk, pinched nerve and degenerative disk disease cause pain to spread to the flanks. Severe strains can lead to muscle spasms in the flank or lower back. Disease: Flank pain may be a sign of several types of disease, including gallbladder disease, liver disease, kidney cancer and some gastrointestinal dis eases. Renal artery disease, a condition that blocks blood flow to the kidneys, can also cause flank pain. Shingles: A viral infection causes shingles, Symptoms of shingles include a painful rash, usually on one side of the trunk (torso). Abdominal aortic aneurysm: The lower part of the aorta (the main blood vessel that carries blood away from the heart) can swell up. If it gets too big, it can rupture (tear). An abdominal aortic aneurysm causes pain and tenderness in the flank area.

    What is the ICD-10 code for R lower flank pain?

    ICD-9 code 789.02 for Abdominal pain left upper quadrant is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range -SYMPTOMS (780-789).

    What diagnosis code is N39 0?

    ICD-10 code: N39.0 Urinary tract infection, site not specified ICD-Code The urinary passages include the ureters, bladder and urethra. Urine flows from both kidneys into the bladder via the ureters. The urethra channels the urine outward from the bladder.

    • In most cases the inflammation affects the urethra or bladder.
    • The inflammation may cause pain when urinating.
    • People often have to go to the toilet very frequently.
    • The urinary passages may become inflamed as a result of pathogens, for example.
    • Women have urinary tract infections more frequently because the distance from the urethra to the anus is shorter.

    The urethra itself is also shorter. That makes it easier for pathogens to enter the bladder from the urethra. If the pathogens then go up from the bladder into the ureter and kidneys, the kidneys may also become inflamed. On medical documents, the ICD code is often appended by letters that indicate the diagnostic certainty or the affected side of the body.

  What is the differential diagnosis for flank pain?

  Technique – The character of flank pain is very helpful in determining the cause. Important characteristics include local or referred pain, acute or chronic or recurrent pain, degree of severity, and duration. Associated symptoms such as fever, nausea and vomiting, and atrial fibrillation often help in making the correct diagnosis.

  Flank pain that radiates to the ipsilateral testicle is usually caused by proximal ureteral or renal pelvic obstruction due to the common innervation of the testicle and the renal pelvis (T11–12). This pain usually originates in the posterior part of the flank and radiates to the testicle of the male or the labia of the female.

  The pain becomes lower and more anterior in the flank when the obstruction occurs in the middle third of the ureter. The pain is still lower, radiates to the scrotal skin (rather than the testicle), and is associated with voiding symptoms such as urinary frequency and urgency when the obstruction occurs at the level of the ureterovesical junction.

  The degree of severity of the pain is directly related to the acuteness of the obstruction rather than the degree of obstruction. Therefore, a stone that passes into the ureter and suddenly becomes lodged in one position usually causes extremely severe pain. But flank pain can be very mild or absent in the presence of very severe but chronic obstruction.

  Mild and chronic flank pain associated with severe ureteral obstruction can produce irreversible renal damage. A stone passing through the ureter will often cause severe but intermittent pain. The intermittent pain is related to obstruction produced when the stone becomes lodged in the ureter.

  Therefore, each episode of pain is likely to be associated with a stone becoming lodged in a new and more distal position in the ureter. Flank pain is often associated with less specific symptoms including fever, nausea and vomiting, and tachycardia. Fever suggests infection proximal to the ureteral obstruction.

  Flank pain associated with fever requires a prompt diagnosis of ureteral obstruction and relief of the obstruction because infection proximal to the obstruction causes much more rapid renal damage than occurs with obstruction in the absence of infection.

  Also, the patient is susceptible to septicemia in the presence of infection proximal to a ureteral obstruction. Gross or microscopic hematuria helps to confirm a urinary cause of the pain. Hematuria is occasionally absent with acute ureteral obstruction, however, and is often absent with chronic obstruction.

  Although ureteral stone is the most common cause of flank pain, many other causes should be considered (see Table 182.1). Flank pain resulting from acute ureteral obstruction can also be caused by blood clots or sloughed renal papillae passing through the ureter.

  • Blood clots can be produced by many pathologic lesions of the kidney, tumors being the most common cause.
  • Renal papillary necrosis should be considered in patients with a history of analgesic abuse or diabetes mellitus.
  • Flank pain caused by chronic ureteral obstruction is generally much less severe.
  • Occasionally, congenital anomalies such as ureteropelvic junction obstruction produce flank pain associated with a diuresis after oral intake of a large volume of fluid.

  Bilateral chronic ureteral obstruction or ureteral obstruction of a solitary kidney can be associated with symptoms of renal failure such as apathy, lethargy, anorexia, muscle twitching, headache, hypertension, and poor growth of a child. A dull or mild flank pain should make the clinician consider many possible causes including congenital ureteral obstruction, ureteral tumor or an extrinsic tumor compressing the ureter, acquired stricture of the ureter due to a previous operation or radiation therapy, retroperitoneal fibrosis, and a ureteral stone.

  1. Flank pain caused by renal inflammation generally is not as sudden in onset or as severe as pain caused by acute ureteral obstruction.
  2. Renal inflammation usually produces localized pain and is associated with other manifestations of infection such as fever, leukocytosis, and bacteriuria.
  3. Flank pain can be caused by different types of renal tumors, but pain is not the most common presenting symptom, and when pain is present, it often is associated with other symptoms.

  Hematuria is the most common symptom seen in tumors presenting in adults; an abdominal mass is the most common presenting symptom of Wilms” tumor in childhood. Uncommon causes of flank pain include renal trauma, renal infarction, and vesicoureteral reflux even in the absence of infection.

  1. Renal infarction should be considered in patients with atrial fibrillation or a recent myocardial infarction.
  2. Vesicoureteral reflux occasionally causes mild flank pain due to distention of the ureter and renal pelvis when the reflux occurs while voiding.
  3. A patient should be suspected of being an analgesic abuser when he or she presents with a history of acute severe flank pain, uric acid stones, previous reactions to contrast media, and a residence a great distance away.

  The physician should not be fooled by hematuria because narcotic addicts find ways to place blood in their urine specimens. Extraurinary diseases of the abdomen and chest can also cause flank pain. These diseases produce pain less characteristic of the typical “renal colic” seen with acute ureteral obstruction.
