* 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.
Phimosis • 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) * 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.
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 calculi I. Clinical picture. II. Investigations.
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. I. Clinical Picture
II. Investigations 1. Urine analysis: hematuria, infection, type of crystals. 2. X - Ray:most of renal stones are radiopaque due to calcification except uric acid stones are radiolucent so not seen. 3. Ultrasounography: can show stones and hydronephrosis. 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..
