Familial renal glucosuria

What it is

A rare, genetic, glucose transport disorder characterized by the presence of persistent isolated glucosuria in the absence of both proximal tubular dysfunction and hyperglycemia. The disorder is benign in the majority of cases although it may occasionally manifest with polyuria, enuresis, a mild growth and pubertal maturation delay, hypercalciuria, aminoaciduria and, in severe cases, increased incidence of urinary infections and episodic dehydration and ketosis during pregnancy and starvation.

ICD-10 codes

ICD-10 has no distinct code for most rare diseases, so many are filed under the nearest available one. A shared code identifies the group, not this disease — the ORPHAcode above is what identifies it.

Reached through the ICD-10 categories this disease is filed under, so these describe the broader group rather than this disease specifically.
