== Additional Info ==
== Additional Info ==
*Acute tubular necrosis (ATN) is a medical condition involving the death of tubular epithelial cells that form the renal tubules of the kidneys.
*It is one of many possible causes of acute kidney injury (AKI) -- also known as Acute Renal Failure.  In the ICU it's among the most common causes of AKI.
*Common causes of ATN include shock, and nephrotoxic drugs.
*ATN is a diagnosis ''usually'' made clinically by:  presence of AKI + presence of a known cause of ATN + urine electrolytes showing consistent findings (e.g. fractional excretion of sodium of >1%) + urine sediment showing lots of renal tubular epithelial cells.
*If you use this code, you should NOT also use the [[Kidney, acute renal failure NOS]] code -- as the latter is for types of acute renal failure that are NOT otherwise specified and ATN is exactly that, a type of acute renal failure that IS otherwise specified.
*In any case, since ATN is a specific type/cause of AKI/ARF, to qualify the patient must have AKI/ARF, as defined by KDIGO:

*Also code the cause, if known.

There are a number of coding rules related to renal diagnoses, centralized info about them is in '''[[ICD10 Guideline for Renal Coding]]'''.
