Q
  • Hydroureter: Dilation of the ureters
  • Hydronephrosis: Dilation of the renal pelvis and calyces
  • Ureterohydronephrosis: Dilation of both the ureters and the renal pelvis and calyces

A

Causes of underactive bladder syndrome

21
Q

➢ Narrowing of lumen that occurs with infection, injury, or

surgical manipulation

A

Urethral stricture

22
Q

➢ Caused by acute inflammation, BPH, or prostate cancer

A

Prostate enlargement

23
Q

➢ Pessary: Rubber or silicone device designed to compensate

for vaginal wall prolapse

A

Pelvic organ prolapse

24
Q

➢ 4th most common in white men > 55 yrs

➢ Transitional cell carcinoma is the most common

A

Bladder tumors

25
Q

Premature newborns
• Prepubertal children
• Women:

  • Sexually active
  • Pregnant
  • Antibiotics (disrupt vaginal flora)
  • Spermicide users
  • Postmenopausal
  • Indwelling catheters
  • DM
  • Neurogenic bladder
  • UTO
  • Immunosuppressed
A

Risk factors of UTIs

26
Q

➢ Escherichia coli
➢ Staphylococcus saprophyticus
➢ Schistosoma haematobium the most common cause of parasitic invasion of the urinary tract on a global basis.

A

Most common pathogens of UTI

27
Q

➢ Ability to evade or overwhelm the host defense
mechanisms and cause disease in a host
➢ Adherence to the uroepithelium:
• Have pili or fimbriae or both
➢ Ability to resist the host’s defense mechanisms:
• Biofilms

A

Virulence of uropathogens

28
Q

A

Cystitis

29
Q

➢ Acute infection of the ureter, renal pelvis, and/or

kidney interstitium

A

Acute pyelonephritis

30
Q

Persistent / recurrent kidney infection→ progressive inflammation, alterations of the pelvicalyceal system → destruction of the tubules → atrophy or dilation and diffuse scarring →→ impaired urine-concentrating ability → CKD

31
Q

Autoimmune inflammation of glomeruli

A

Acute Glomerulonephritis

32
Q

Most common form of acute glomerulonephritis

A

33
Q

Most common cause of acute glomerulonephritis

Complement-mediated glomerular injury → ↑ glomerular permeability
and glomerulosclerosis

A

Membranous nephropathy (GN)

34
Q

Rare injury that → proliferation of glomerular capillary endothelial cells → rapid RF.

A

Crescentic (Rapidly progressive) GN

35
Q

Immune complex in the mesangium → mesangial cell proliferation

A

Nephrotic Syndrome

39
Q

≈ 25% ↓ renal function

􏰀 Deficiency states
􏰀 Electrolyte disorders
􏰀 Proinflammatory state
A

Uremia

43
Q

Elevated levels of urea and other nitrogen compounds in the blood.
