Presentation Transcript

  1. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

  2. BPH • Benign increase in size of prostate • Hyperplasia of stromal and epithelial cells • Nodules

  3. Patient W.M. • 76 yo • Recurrent UTIs • Acute pyelonephritis • Urinary frequency, urgency, incontinence, and nocturia

  4. Past Medical History • Hypothyroidism • COPD • Obesity • 1 ppd smoker • Father – alcoholic • Mother – DM type 2

  5. Review of Symptoms • Strain to initiate urination • Urinary flow stops and then starts • Post-void dribbling

  6. Medications • Ipratropium bromide • Ibuprofen • Levothyroxine • Ferrous sulfate

  7. Case Question 1:For what condition is the patient probably taking ipratroprium bromide?

  8. Ipratropium bromide is used to relieve bronchial spasms • Anticholinergic

  9. Answer:COPD

  10. Case Question 2:For what condition is the patient probably taking levothyroxine?

  11. Synthetic thyroid hormone

  12. Answer:Hypothyroidsim

  13. IPSS • International Prostate Symptom Score • 8 question survey • Standardize patients

  14. Case Question 3:Based on the patient’s IPSS, is his condition of prostatic enlargement considered mild, moderate or severe?

  15. Case Question 4:Based on the patient’s BMI, is the patient technically overweight or obese?

  16. BMI • Measure of body fat • Underweight < 18.5 • Normal weight = 18.5-24.9 • Overweight = 25-29.9 • Obesity > 30

  17. Vital Signs • Patient’s BMI = 33.8%

  18. Physical Exam • All normal • Urinary Function Tests • Uroflowmetry • Transabdominal ultrasound • Pressure flow study

  19. Case Question 5:Which urinary function test(s) is/are consistent with an enlarged prostate?

  20. Uroflowmetry • Normal: 10 – 21 mL/sec • Patient: 7 mL/sec • Residual Urine Volume • > 50 mL significant • Patient: 110 mL • Bladder Voiding Pressure • Weak < 100 cm H2O • Patient: 74 cm H2O

  21. Case Question 6:Identify all abnormal results of this patient’s urinalysis

  22. Blood Test Results *PSA 13 months ago was 5.0 ng/mL

  23. Case Question 7:Is the patient experiencing an electrolyte imbalance?

  24. *PSA 13 months ago was 5.0 ng/mL

  25. 8. Renal Function? *PSA 13 months ago was 5.0 ng/mL

  26. 9. Hepatic Function? *PSA 13 months ago was 5.0 ng/mL

  27. 10. Hb, Hct, MCV, MCH, MCHC? *PSA 13 months ago was 5.0 ng/mL

  28. 11. T4 and TSH? *PSA 13 months ago was 5.0 ng/mL

  29. 12. Single most significant result? *PSA 13 months ago was 5.0 ng/mL

  30. Case Question 13:Provide three strong lines of evidence that this patient does not have prostate cancer

  31. Low PSA • Physical exam findings • Low WBC count

  32. Case Question 14:Pharmacotherapy or surgery?

  33. Case Question 15:When a patient with mild-to-moderate BPH does not respond to pharmacotherapy with 5α-reductase inhibitors or α1-blockers, what can be inferred?
