proteinuria assoc. w/
benign & malignant masses
glomerulonephritis
infection

acute/chronic pyelonephritis
caculi
abnormal urine PH
calculi
low specific gravity
renal failure and pylenophrititis
high specific gravity
dehydration
what pathology has elevated BUN
renal failure
parenchymal disease
obstruction
dehydration
diabetes mellitus
hemorrhage
what pathologies have a reduced BUN
liver disease and failure
malnutrition
over hydration
smoking
pregnancy
the functional unit of the kidney
the nephron
where do the kidneys initially develop
the pelvis
most common location for an ectopic kidney
the pelvis
name of the pararenal fat layer covers the
gerotas fascia
the renal sinus contains the
collecting system, major and minor calyces and infundibula
branching of the arteries in the kidney
segmental
interlobar
arcuate
interlobular
afferent
which is more ant the left renal vein or artery
the vein
the most common cause of acute renal failure
acute tubular necrosis
clincal findings of acute renal failure
elevated BUN/creatnine
oliguria
hypertension
leukocytosis
hematuria
edema
hypovolemia
sono appearance of ARF
normal
may appear echogenic
most common cause of chronic renal failure
diabetes mellutis
CRF (chronic renal failure) can lead to
end stage renal disease
clinical findngs of CRF
diabetes
malaise
elevated bun/creatinine
fatigue
hypertension
hyperkalemia (high potassium)
sono appearance of CRF
small echogenic kidneys
loss of cortico medullary differentiation
renal cyst
other causes of CRF
chronic pyleneophritits
glomerulonephritits
obstruction
tuberculosis
locations a simple cyst can be
peripelvic
parapelvic
exophytic
cortical
a cyst with nodules, papillary projections, septations in the kidneys is suspicious for
RCC
hemorrhagic renal cyst clinical findings
trauma
hematuria
flank pain
hemorrhagic renal cyst sono appearance
depends on stage
infection renal cyst clinical findings
uti
fever
flank pain
hematuria
leukocytosis
infected renal cyst sono appearance
thick walls
internal debris
milk of calcium cyst
asymptomatic
within the cyst calcification
renal cyst with internal calcifications
history of infected or hemorrhage cyst
when does symptoms of autosomal dominant start to manifest
3rd or 4th decade of life
clinical findings ADPKD
decreased renal function
uti
calculi
pain
hematuria
hypertension
sono appearance ADPKD
bilateral enlarged kidneys with cortical renal cyst
ARPKD clinical findings
infantile
renal failure
hepatic disease
ARPKD on sono
bilateral enlarged echogenic kidneys
loss of corticomedullary differentiation
how is ARPKD characterized
dilatation of the renal collecting tubules
unilateral MCDK clinical findings
asymptomatic
hypertension
restricted grow in children
is there functioning kidney tissue with MCDK
noooo
sono findings of MCDK
compensatory hypertrophy of the contralateral kidney
non communicating cyst
small kidneys in adults
acquired renal cystic disease is often the result of
chronic hemodialysis
