[Anterior urethral valves].
OBJECTIVE To discuss clinical signs, diagnostic tools and therapeutics of anterior urethral valves, an obstructive anomaly of the urinary system in males. DESCRIPTION Signs of urinary tract obstruction were identified on pre-natal ultrasound in two male fetuses and the diagnosis of anterior urethral valves was made through post-natal evaluation. As an initial treatment, vesicostomy was perfor...
متن کاملFetal urinoma in females without obstructive uropathy.
OBJECTIVE Prenatal diagnosis of urinomas has long been established with underlying obstructive uropathy generally responsible for urinary extravasation. Because urinoma formation represents a pop-off mechanism in cases of posterior urethral valves, the number of affected males greatly exceeds the number of females. Fetal urinoma has rarely been reported without obstruction and in females it has...
متن کاملAnterior urethral valves--a rare cause of urethral obstruction.
Anterior urethral valves is a very rare congenital anomaly of the anterior urethra. It produces symptoms of varied intensity with the most severe ones leading to Urosepsis and renal failure (similar to as in posterior urethral valves) to the milder ones which may not produce any obstruction at all. However unlike the Posterior urethral valves this anomaly has milder and reversible sequelae in m...
متن کاملAnterior urethral valves. A case report.
Anterior urethral valves are rare anomalies which cause obstructive uropathy in the lower urinary tract of young men. We discuss our illustrative case and review the English medical literature in order to analyze the clinicopathologic spectrum. We propose a hypothesis of embryology of this lesion and present guidelines for its management.
متن کاملObstructive Uropathy Secondary to Posterior Urethral Valves: Retarding the Progression to End-Stage Kidney Disease in Children
Posterior urethral valve (PUV) is the most common cause of obstructive uropathy leading to chronic kidney disease (CKD) in male newborn infants. The few children that survive have poor prognosis, with over 50% progressing to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) within ten years. This review aims to appraise the current interventions targeted at retarding the progression of the obstructive uropathy t...
