Urology
A surgical specialty devoted to the study and
treatment of disorders of the genitourinary tract of
the male and urinary tract of the female.
Urology
 15 % of patients presenting to a physician have a
urologic complaint or abnormality.
Urology
 Urologists have a unique position in medicine
 Their patients encompass all age groups
 Prenatal
 Pediatric
 Adolescent
 Adult
 Geriatric.
 Their patients comprised both gender
Urology
Urology combines management of:
– Medical problems
Urinary tract infections
Benign prostatic hyperplasia
– Surgical problems
The surgical management of urolithiasis
The surgical management of cancers
The correction of congenital abnormalities
Correcting certain types of incontinence.
Urology
Wide overlap of urology with other specialties
1. Nephrology
2. Andrology
3. Pediatric surgery
4. The medical fields of oncology
5. Endocrinology.
The organs covered by urology
– Adrenal glands
– Kidneys
– Ureters
– Urinary bladder
– Urethra
– The male reproductive organs

Symptoms of urological
diseases
UROLOGIC MANIFESTATIONS OF
DISEASE
1. Direct
• Signs and symptoms that are directly related to the GUT:
• Hematuria
• Scrotal swelling
2. Indirect
• Manifestation Referred to or from Other Organ Systems:
• A stone in the kidney or upper ureter
• Symptoms of nausea and vomiting.
• Ipsilateral testicular pain
3.Primary urologic disorders may be hidden and
manifested in different organ or systems.
• Bone pain and pathologic fracture
• Secondary to metastatic carcinoma arising in the genito-urinary tract .
UROLOGIC MANIFESTATIONS OF DISEASE
4. Primary disease in other organ systems may result in
secondary urologic signs and symptoms that initially lead the
patient to the urologist.
• D.M :
• Frequency, polyurea and nocturia.
• ED
• Glucosuria
• D.I
• Other signs and symptoms mimicking urologic disease are related to
inflammatory or neoplastic processes arising in other organs:
1. Lower lobes of the lungs
2. Gastrointestinal tract
3. Female internal genitalia
UROLOGIC MANIFESTATIONS OF DISEASE
5. Systemic constitutional manifestations
• Fever, weight loss, and malaise
May be present in:
• Acute and chronic inflammatory disorders
• Renal failure
• Genitourinary carcinoma with or without metastases.
UROLOGIC MANIFESTATIONS OF DISEASE
6. Asymptomatic presentation
Extensive disease may exist within the genitourinary tract without
any signs or symptoms
• Large renal calculi
• Neoplasms may only be found incidentally during other examination.
• Far-advanced renal deterioration may occur prior to the detection of
silent reflux or obstruction.
UROLOGIC MANIFESTATIONS OF DISEASE
HISTORY
Urologic symptoms
A. Pain and discomfort
B. Alterations of micturition
C. Changes in the gross appearance of the urine
D. Abnormal appearance and/or function of the external
genitalia
Pain
1. Pain within the genitourinary tract generally arises from
 Distention or inflammation
2. Pain can be experienced directly or referred
3. Referred pain is a relatively common symptom of GU disease.
Renal pain
A. The kidney and its capsule are innervated by
 Sensory fibers traveling to the TI0-LI
B. The etiology of renal pain may be due either to
 Distention
 Capsular
 Renal collecting system.
 Inflammation
C. Renal pain characters:
 A dull, aching sensation felt in area of the costovertebral angle
 A sharp colicky nature felt in the area of the flank, with radiation around
the abdomen into the groin and ipsilateral scrotum or labium.
Ureteral pain
• The upper ureter is innervated in a similar fashion to
the kidney.
• Upper Ureteral pain has a similar distribution to that of renal pain.
• The lower ureter sends sensory fibers to the cord
through ganglia subserving the major pelvic organs.
• Pain derived from the lower ureter is generally felt in the suprapubic
area, bladder, penis, or urethra.
Ureteral pain
• Etiologic mechanism for Ureteral pain is
• Sudden obstruction and Ureteral distention.
• Acute renal and Ureteral colic are among the most severe types
of pain known to humankind.

Other urologic pains
 Cystalgia (vesical pain)
 Persistent pain localized behind pubic bone
 Urethralgia
 Pain along the urethra
 Prostatic pain
 Sharp pain promoting to the perineum
 Orchalgia
 Pain localized to the testes, often propagating along the spermatic
cord
Changes in urine volume
 Polyuria-
 Diuresis > 1500-2000 ml/24h
 Oliguria -
 Diuresis < 500 ml/24h
 Anuria -
 Diuresis < 100 ml/24h
Changes in urine appearance
 Hematuria:
 Blood in urine
 Cloudy urine
 Pyuria (presence of pus in urine)
 Chyluria (presence of fatty lymph in the urine)
 Bacteriuria :
 Presence of bacteria in urine
Changes in urine appearance
 Proteinuria-:
 Proteins in urine
 Pneumaturia :
 Passage of gas with urine
 Necroturia :
 Necrotic tissues in the urine
Voiding Disorders
 Frequency :
 Voiding too often (>8/day)
 Nocturia:
 Frequent voiding at night (after sleep)
 Urine retention:
 Inability to void
 Acute
 chronic
 Strangury:
 Painful voiding
Voiding disorders
Urinary incontinence
- Urgency
- A sudden, compelling and powerful need to urinate.
- Precipitancy
- Inability to stop urine midway
- Stress incontinence
- Involuntary loss of urine with sudden increase of intraabdominal pressure
- Overflow incontinence
- Involuntary loss of urine associated with overdistention of the bladder, with or without
a detrusor contraction.
- Total incontinence
- Continuous and total loss of urinary control and is the severest type of incontinence
- Nocturnal Enuresis
- Involuntary urination while asleep after the age at which bladder control usually
begins.
Voiding Disorders
Obstructive symptoms
- Hesitancy:
- Voiding initiation delay
- Interrupted voiding
- Weak urine stream
- Incomplete voiding
- Necessity of abdominal pressure during voiding
- Retention
Voiding Disorders
Irritative Symptoms
- Frequency
- Urgency
- Dysuria
History of Other urological
diseases
– Corective operations in childhood
– Urolithiasis
– Urogenital infection
– Blood in urine
– Sexually transmitted diseases
– Catheterizations, endoscopy, trauma /biking,
riding horses/ → strictures
History of other diseases
 DM
 Systemic neurological Disasters
 operations in pelvic region
 Obstetric and gynecologic history
 Abuse of analgetic medication
 Risk jobs, exposition of carcenogenic substances
 Allergic history
Examination Of Urologic Patient
Examination
