Secondary hypertension accompanying high pressure chronic retention.
Two middle-aged men were referred for control of severe hypertension, presumed to be 'essential'. Late-onset enuresis, a small palpable bladder, and slight prostatic enlargement were elicited in one patient; history and examination were unremarkable in the other patient, apart from moderate prostatic enlargement. Intravenous urography revealed massive bilateral hydronephrosis with hydroureters ...

متن کاملA Unique Case of Spontaneous Bilateral Renal Subcapsular Urinoma Secondary to High Pressure Chronic Retention of Urine
Subcapsular urinomas have been reported in the past as a presenting feature of ureteric or bladder outlet obstruction, generally in children, and often associated with neurogenic bladders. We describe a case of spontaneous asymptomatic bilateral subcapsular urinomas in an adult male with high pressure retention of urine secondary to bladder outlet obstruction. An extensive literature review sho...
متن کاملAcute and Chronic Retention.
By acute retention is meant a sudden and complete inability to pass urine. A chronic retention means that the patient is unable to empty the bladder, though micturition is still possible, and may even be apparently quite free. The quantity unevacuated from the bladder is termed residual urine, and this may vary in amount from a few ounces in cases of minor obstruction, to two or more pints in a...
متن کاملHow does salt retention raise blood pressure?
A critical question in hypertension research is: How is long-term blood pressure controlled? Excessive NaCl ingestion or NaCl retention by the kidneys and the consequent tendency toward plasma volume expansion lead to hypertension. Nevertheless, the precise mechanisms linking salt to high blood pressure are unresolved. The discovery of endogenous ouabain, an adrenocortical hormone, provided an ...
