N05 Unspecified nephritic syndrome

This page in Swedish

N05 is the ICD-10 code for Unspecified nephritic syndrome. It is a three-character category. WHO defines its fourth-character subdivisions once for the whole group of categories; the national editions below list them in full. It belongs to the block N00–N08 (Glomerular diseases) in Chapter XIV, Diseases of the genitourinary system.
