Lower Urinary Tract Obstruction
Lower urinary tract obstruction is defined as partial or complete obstruction of the urinary tract at the level of the urethra and the bladder. The posterior urethral valves are the most common cause, 9 percent of the fetal uropathies. The incidence range is wide, because of different databases show different populations. The most severe obstructive uropathy is in patients with kidney damage, o...
متن کاملPrenatal Intervention for Lower Urinary Tract Obstruction
Hydronephrosis is one of the most common abnormalities detected on routine prenatal ultrasounds, being noted in up to 1% of fetuses. Rarely, severe hydronephrosis coexists with oligohydramnios, which portends a poor prognosis. We review the most recent literature on the results of prenatal intervention in this setting. Presently, the first randomized controlled trial to address whether prenatal...
متن کاملFetal Lower Urinary Tract Obstruction: An Update
Fetal lower urinary tract obstruction [LUTO] represents a rare, heterogeneous group of uropathies involving mechanical or functional blockage at the bladder outlet of varying severity. While ultrasound is a fair screening tool for the antenatal detection of this condition, it cannot reliably determine the underlying etiology of LUTO presentations. Sonographic assessment of renal appearance and ...
متن کاملLower urinary tract symptoms suggestive of benign prostatic obstruction--Triumph: health-economical analysis.
Given the ageing of western populations, the cost burden associated with the treatment of LUTS suggestive of BPO will increase substantially over the next few decades. Therefore, from the economic perspective, the primary objective of the Triumph project is the assessment of the cost-effectiveness of treatment options for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) suggestive of benign prostatic obstru...
متن کاملImaging in Urinary Tract Obstruction
There are numerous studies available to the urologist in the diagnosis and management of obstruction. These include radiographic studies, such as the plain film (kidney, ureter and bladder – KUB), intravenous pyelography (IVP) and retrograde urography, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), Lasix renogram, magnetic resonance (MR) urogram and the Whitaker test. Selection of a specific test over a...
