Leukuria

Hello,
I have been getting a couple diagnosis from Dr's referring to "Luekuria". I am curious what others have coded this as. Would you just use abnormal findings in urine, Casts and cells in urine?

The code I want to use is 791.7 Casts and cells in urine. Since leukuria, to me, means white blood cells in the urine. Any thoughts? Thank you very much for your time.
