CHAPTER 20 Genitourinary Surgery
Anatomy • Suprarenal glands • Kidneys • Ureters • Urinary bladder
Supradrenal Glands • On top of kidneys • Endocrine glands • Cortex • Secretes steroid- type hormones • Control fluid and electrolyte balance • Medulla • Secretes epinephrine • Norepinephrine
Kidneys • Differ in location and size • Left is normally larger • Nephron is the functional unit • Renal corpuscle • Renal tubule • Filters blood • Excrete waste
Ureters • Conduct urine from the kidney to the bladder • Muscular tubes • Small lumen • “S” shaped
Urinary Bladder • Collects urine • Lies in the anterior half of the pelvis • Male • Lies on and is attached to the base of the prostate gland • Female • Lies on the pelvic diaphragm
Urinary Bladder • Trigone • Ureteral openings • Urethral opening • Base of the bladder
Bladder Tumors • Present with hematuria • Single growth or multiple present • Benign (papillomas) occur in young adults • Malignant neoplasms usually occur in men over 50 • Early removal transurethrally
Small solid particles Form in one or both kidneys Travel through the urinary system Partial or total obstruction Urinary Calculi
Calculi symptoms Dysuria Polyuria Passage of small amounts of urine Flank pain Nausea and vomiting Urinary Calculi
Male Reproductive System • Penis • Testes • Ductus • Deferens • Seminal vesicles • Ejaculatory ducts • Prostate gland
Penis • Superficial structure • Cylindrical masses of cavernous tissue • Two corpora cavernosa • Dorsal • Corpus spongiosum • Midline
Penis • Glans penis • Prepuce • Foreskin • Covers the glans penis
Male Urethra • Passes through the prostate gland • Divided into three parts • Prostatic • Membranous • Spongy
Female Urethra • Only 4 cm long • Passes in front of the lower half of the vagina • Skene’s glands provide lubrication
Testes • Paired • Lie in the scrotum • Tunica vaginalis covers most of the testis, epididymis, and lower end of spermatic cord • Seminiferous tubules • Epididymis • Maturation site
Ductus Deferens • Arises from the epididymis • Also known as the “vas deferens” • Ascends through the inguinal canal • Delivers semen to the prostatic urethra
Prostate Gland • Accessory gland • Lobulated gland (50 lobules) • Secrete prostatic fluid
Pathology • Adrenal Glands • Cushing’s syndrome • Overproduction of cortisol • Addison’s disease • Complication of certain illnesses – TB and AIDS • Renal insufficiency
Pathology • Adrenal Glands • Pheochromocytoma • Tumor affecting the medulla • Overproduction of adrenaline
Pathology • Urinary System • Bladder tumors • Urinary calculi • Kidney disorders
Kidney Disorders • Polycystic Kidney Disease • Occurs when the parenchyma of the kidney is replaced by multiple fluid filled benign cysts • Autosomal dominant • Inherited • Symptomatic between the age of 30 and 40 • 90% of PKD fall under this category
Kidney Disorders • Polycystic Kidney Disease • Autosomal recessive • Inherited • Extremely rare • Affects young children • Acquired • Develops in patients with long term kidney disease
Kidney Disorders • Diabetic Nephropathy • Sclerosis • Kimmelstiel-Wilson disease • Diabetic glomerulosclerosis • Caused by uncontrolled diabetes mellitus
Kidney Disorders • End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) • Kidney failure • Kidneys functioning under 10% • Half the population with ESRD is diabetic • Dialysis • Kidney transplant
Kidney Disorders • Renal Cell Carcinoma • Adenocarcinoma • Most common type of kidney cancer • 8,000 deaths per year in the U.S. • Affects men twice as often • Usually appears between 50-60 years old • Directly linked to cigarette smoking
Kidney Disorders • Congenital Nephroblastoma • Wilms’ tumor • Malignant • Occurs primarily in children between 3-4 years • Surgical removal is recommended • Followed by radiation and chemotherapy
Pathology Affecting the Male Reproductive System • Phimosis • Hypospadias/Epispadias • Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy (BPH) • Cancer • Cryptorchidism • Testicular Torsion
Diagnostic Procedures • History and physical • Hematology • Urinalysis • Regular X-ray • KUB (kidney, ureter, bladder)
Diagnostic Procedures • IVU • Retrograde urogram • MIBG • Biopsy • Endoscopy
Special Considerations • Transurethral procedures • Specially equipped room • Built-in table • Radiographic equipment • Darkroom • Drainage system
Special Considerations • General instruments • Kidney instruments • Rib instruments
Cystoscope Flexible Cystoscope Rigid Cystoscope
Incisional Options • Inguinal • Access the scrotal contents of an adult or child • Scrotal • Access scrotal contents • Abdominal
Incisional Options • Gibson • Extraperitoneal abdominal approach • Access the lower ureter • Flank • Lumbar • Adrenalectomy, renal biopsy, removal of low lying kidney
Common Procedures • Nephrectomy • Adrenalectomy • Renal transplant • ESWL • Cystectomy
Common Procedures • Marshall-Marchetti-Krantz (MMK) • Circumcision • Orchiopexy • TURP • Prostatectomy
Nephrectomy • Subtotal removal • Upper or lower pole of the kidney • Total removal • Simple • Small malignancies • Chronic obstructive disorders • Benign tumors • Transplant
Open Cystotomy • Alternate method of catheterizing the bladder for drainage • Percutaneous • Open • Acute urinary retention • Enlarged prostate
Stress Incontinence in Women • Restore posterior urethrovesical angle • Elevate base of bladder • MMK procedure • Suprapubic suspension • Stamey procedure • Endoscopic suspension • Stamey needle
