Middle tract

- Bladder Upper Tract

- Ureter and Kidney

Page 9: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Lower Tract (Urethral Stricture)Obstruction

Dilation of the Proximal Urethra

Thinning of Wall or Formation of a Diverticulum

Urinary Extravasation & Periurethral Abscess

↑Hydrostatic Pressure

Infected Urine

Page 10: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Midtract (Prostatic Hyperplasia)I. Stage of Compensation

Bladder musculature hypertrophies for complete emptying (To balance the ↑outlet resistance)

Infection – edema of submucosa, infiltrated with plasma cells, lymphocytes and polymorphonuclear cells

Evidences:

Trabeculation of the bladder wall

Cellules

Diverticula

Changes in the Mucosa

Page 11: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Bladder Musculature Hypertrophy

Trabeculation of the bladder wall• Muscle bundles become taut• Coarsely interwoven appearance• Trigonal muscle & interureteric ridge

hypertrophies and becomes prominent

• ↑ resistance to urine flow resulting to functional obstruction of ureterovesical junctions, back pressure on kidneys & hydroureteronephrosis

• Obstruction ↑ with residual urine

Cellules – small pockets• Trabeculated bladder reaches pressures 2-4 times greater

than normal to force urine past the obstruction• Pushes mucosa between superficial muscle bundles

Page 12: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Diverticula• When cellules force their way

entirely through the musculature of the bladder wall → saccules → diverticula

• Unable to expel contents (no muscle wall)

Mucosa• With Infection – red & edematous• Leading to vesicoureteral reflux

(temporary)• Thin and pale (chronic inflammation)

II. Stage of Decompensation• Less contractile• Weak• Residual urine > 500ml

Page 13: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Upper Tract (Prostatic Hyperplasia)Ureter Early – competent valves

Back Pressure - Dilatation & Hydronephrosis

Residual urine adds stretch to the trigone increasing further the resistance to flow and further hydroureteronephrosis

Secondary to back pressure the muscle thickens in its attempt to push urine downward by ↑ peristaltic activity

Elongaton & Tortuosity

Bands of fibrosis develops

On contraction, they angulate the ureter, thus obstruction

Walls become attenuated & loses contractile powers (decompensation)

Page 14: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Kidneys

Higher obstruction = ↑ effect on kidney

Intrarenal Pelvis

back pressure exerted on parenchyma

Extrarenal Pelvis

only part of the pressure exerted on parenchyma

embedded on FAT & easily dilates

Upper Tract (Prostatic Hyperplasia)

Intrarenal Pelvis

Extrarenal Pelvis

Page 15: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Earliest changes = seen on calyces

Fornices blunt and rounded

Papilla becomes flattened & clubbed

Parenchyma b/w calyces is less affected

Changes in parenchyma are due to:

• Compression atrophy ↑intrapelvic pressure

• Ischemic atrophy from hemodynamic changes (arcuate vessels)

HYDRONEPHROTIC ATROPHY

Upper Tract (Prostatic Hyperplasia)

Page 16: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Spotty atrophy

“end arteries”

Ischemia most marked in areas farthest from the interlobular arteries

2

Upper Tract (Prostatic Hyperplasia)

3 Pressure is transmitted up the tubules, becoming dilated & atrophy from ischemia

4 Unilateral= advanced stages

Kidney destroyed; thin walled sac filled with clear fluid or pus

Suppression of renal function as intra-renal pressure ↑

Page 17: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

As the intra-pelvic structure approaches the GF pressure (6-12 mmHg): ↓ Urine is secreted

↓GFR

Renal plasma flow concentrating power is gradually lost

↓Urea-Creatinine concentration ratio

Kidney still continue to secrete urine; fluid and soluble substances are reabsorbed in the tubules or lymphatics

Cessation of Filtration:

Safety Mechanism = Break in the surface lining of the collecting structure at the fornices (weakest point) → Pyelointerstitial Backflow*

In unilateraly hydronephrosis, the normal kidney undergoes compensatory hypertrophy of its nephrons (assuming function of diseased kidney)

4 weeks to recover function

Irreversible loss of function can begin as early as 7 days (dilatation and necrosis of proximal tubules)

Physiologic Explanation of Symptoms of Bladder Neck Obstruction

Page 20: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

A. Compensation PhaseStage 1 (Stage of Irritability)

Bladder neck and vesical musculature begins to hypertrophyThe force and size of urinary stream still remains normalBladder appears Hypersensitive

In hypertrophied detrussor the contraction is so strong that it virtually goes into spasm causing irritable bladder

Earliest symptoms therefore are: 1. Urgency 2. Frequency

Stage 2 (Stage of Compensation)Further hypertrophy of muscle fibersIn addition to: Urgency + Frequency + HesitancyThere is a loss in the force and size of the urinary stream

the stream becomes slower as vesical emptying nears completion because of exhaustion of the detrusor as it nears the end of the contraction phase

Page 21: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

B. Decompensation Phase Stage 1 (Acute Decompansation)

Tone of the compensated vesical muscle is temporarily embarassed Happens when there is : 1. rapid filling of the bladder (high fluid intake)

2. overstretching of the detrusor (postponement of urination though the urge is felt)

There may be: 1. increase difficulty of urination 2. marked hesitancy 3. need for straining to initiate urination 4. residual urine (due to termination of stream before

bladder completely empties)

Stage 2 (Chronic Decompensation) As the degree of obstruction ↑ progressive imbalance between bladder muscle power and urethral resistance occursThere may be: 1. marked difficulty to expel urine

2. amount of residual urine gradually increases 3. functional capacity of the bladder diminishes 4. progressive frequency 5.loss power of contraction & overflow incontinence

Page 22: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

3. Chills, Fever, Burning on urination and cloudy urine

Page 25: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

4. Nausea, Vomiting, Loss of weight and strength, and pallor

Page 26: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Palpation of urethra reveal induration about a stricture Rectal examination may show atony of the anal sphincter or

benign or malignant enlargement of the prostate. Urine flowmeter measurement

* flow rate under 10ml/s= indicative of obstruction or weak detrussor function

* flow rate as low as 3-5ml/s= associated with atonic neurogenic bladder or with urethral stricture or prostatic obstruction

B. Signs: Lower and midtract (urethra and bladder) obstruction

Page 27: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Enlarged kidney by palpation or percussion Renal tenderness if infection is present Children with advanced urinary tract obstruction may develop

ascites Rupture of renal fornices= leakage of urine retroperitoneally Rupture of the bladder= urine pass into the peritoneal cavity

through a tear in the peritoneum

Exploration of the urethra with a catheter or other instrument is a valuable diagnostic measure. Passage may be blocked by stricture or tumor.

Spasm of the external sphincter may make passage difficult. Passage of the catheter immediately after voiding allows

estimation of the amount of residual urine in the bladder. Measurement of vesical tone by means of cystometry is helpful

in diagnosing neurogenic bladder and in differentiating between bladder neck obstruction and vesical atony.

Inspection of the urethra and bladder by means of cystoscopy and panendoscopy may reveal the primary obstructive agent.

almost always asymptomatic unless it has led to a kidney infection (febrile UTI)

Neurologic Spinal Cord Injury, Pelvic Trauma

Severity of symptoms depends on site and extent of lesions

Foreign Body Contraceptive devicesCystitis, Hematuria, Infection, Stone Formation, Colonization causing urinary tract obstruction

Page 35: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

ComplicationsInfection

• Stagnation of urine leads to infection, which then may spread throughout the entire urinary sytem

• Often the invading organisms are urea-splitting (proteus, staphylococci)

• Calcium stones precipitate and form kidney or bladder stones

Page 36: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Renal insufficiency

• Both kidneys are affected

Pyonephrosis

• End stage of severy linected obstructed kidney.

• Kidney is functionless and filled with thick pus

• Air urogram is caused by gas liberated by infecting organisms.(plain film of the abdmen)

Treatment

Page 38: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

TreatmentA. Relief of Obstruction

B. Eradication of Infection

Page 39: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Relief of Obstruction1. Lower tract obstruction (distal to the bladder)

Correction of obstruction

Patients with minimal secondary renal or ureterovesical damage.

Drainage (eg, loop ureterostomy)

To preserve or improve renal function

Surgical Repair

Significant reflux is demonstrated and does not subside spontaneously after relief of obstruction

Considerable hydronephrosis in addition to reflux

Page 40: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Relief of Obstruction2. Upper tract obstruction (above the bladder)

Drainage

Nephrostomy or ureterostomy

o Tortuous, kinked, dilated, or atonic ureters have developed secondary to lower tract obstruction

Ureteroileal conduito Permanent urinary diversion

Surgery ( Nephrectomy)

If one kidney is irreversibly damaged

Page 41: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Eradication of infection Done after obstruction is removed

Give proper antibiotics to treat the infection

Page 42: Urinary Obstruction & Stasis

Prognosis No simple statement can be made about the prognosis in this group of

patients.

Outcome depends on the cause, site, degree, and duration of obstruction.

Prognosis is definitely influenced by complicating infection and duration of the inkfection.

If renal function is good, obstrution and oher causes of stasis can be corrected, and if complicating infection can be eradicated, prognosis is generally excellent.
