Obstructive UropathyObstructive Uropathy

* Causes of UT obstruction:
1. Urethral causes: phimosis – stricture - tumors.
2. Prostatic causes: BPH - cancer.
3. Bladder neck obstruction: functional, bilharziasis,
stone, tumor.
4. Ureteric causes: bilharzial stricture, stone, tumors,
pregnancy, retroperitoneal fibrosis.
5. Renal pelvis causes: stone, tumor.
PhimosisPhimosis
• Means narrowing of the external urethral orifice.
a. Congenital: a condition where, in men, the foreskin
cannot be fully retracted over the glans penis.
b. Acquired: secondary to inflammatory lesions.
Urinary calculi (stones)Urinary calculi (stones)
* Types:I. 1ry (metabolic) stones:-Calcium stones (calcium oxalate or phosphate).-Uric acid stone.-Cysteine stone.
II. 2ry (Infected) stone: (Struvite stone).
III. Compound stone.

oxalate/phosphate stone
Uric acid stone Cysteine stone
• Etiology hypercalcaemia Hyperuricemia cysteinuria
• Shape rounded rounded rounded
• Consistency hard firm soft
• Outer surface
spiny smooth smooth
• Color brown Light brown yellow
II. 2ry (infected) stoneII. 2ry (infected) stone(struvite)
• Etiology Urinary tract infection which precipitate magnesium and ammonia
• Shape Rounded or stag horn
• Consistency Friable
• Outer surface Smooth
• Color white
III. Compound stoneIII. Compound stone
• Etiology 1ry stone followed by urinary tract infection
• Shape Rounded or stag horn stone
• Consistency Variable
• Outer surface Smooth
• Color variable
Stag horn stone : is the stone with branches formed within calyces and pelvis is termed stag horn-like or coral-like stone

Diagnosis of renal calculiDiagnosis of renal calculi
I. Clinical picture.I. Clinical picture.
II. Investigations.II. Investigations.
I. Clinical PictureI. Clinical Picture• Asymptomatic if the stone do not cause
any obstruction. • Severe flank pain: colicky in nature (comes
and goes in spasmodic waves). Pain in the back occurs when calculi produce an obstruction in the kidney or pain caused by peristaltic contractions of the ureter as it attempts to expel the stone
• Flank pain referred to genitalia• Nausea, vomiting may mislead • Microhematuria if stone have rough
surface.
II. InvestigationsII. Investigations1. Urine analysis1. Urine analysis: : hematuria, infection, type of crystals.
2. X - Ray:2. X - Ray: most of renal stones are radiopaque due to
calcification except uric acid stones are radiolucent so not
seen.
3. Ultrasounography: 3. Ultrasounography: can show stones and hydronephrosis.
4. Intravenous pyelogram (IVP): 4. Intravenous pyelogram (IVP): will show delayed function,
hydronephrosis and hydroureter.

* Complications of renal stones:
• Migration → pain & obstruction.
• Obstruction → hydroureter & hydronephrosis or calculus anuria.
• Hematuria due to Injury of urinary mucosa.
• Infection → cystitis → pyelonephritis, pyoureter, pyonephrosis.
• Metaplasia (squamous metaplasia) → squamous cell carcinoma..
