OBSTRUCTY UROPATHY/NEPHROPATHY SHOFA CHASANI RS ROEMANI SEMARANG
Objectives • Define obstruksi uropathy/nephropathy • Incidence • Etiology/pathophysiology • Clinical presentation • Diagnosis • Treatment and management • Pre-hospital/emergency department care
Incidence • Frequency • No data available in unselected populations • 20-35% prevalence in large survey among elderly men • 3.8% (adults); 2.0% (children) postmortem examinations • Sex • No gender difference until 20 years • Women 20-60; Men > 60 • Age • Special considerations in pediatric patients
Etiology • Types of obstruction • Mechanical blockade • Intrinsic • extrinsic • Functional defects • Congenital
Pathophysiology • Unilateral (UUO)? • Bilateral (BUO)? • Obstruction relieved or not? • Time
Global Renal Function Changes • Kf- glomerular ultrafiltration coeffecient related to the surface area and permeability of the capillary membrane • PGC- glomerular capillary pressure. Influenced by renal plasma flow and the resistance of the afferent and efferent arterioles • PT- Hydraulic pressure of fluid in the tubule • P- the oncotic pressure of the proteins in the glomerular capillary and efferent arteriolar blood • Obstruction can affect hemodynamic variables and GFR • GFR= Kf(PGC-PT-PGC) • RPF= (aortic pressure-renal venous pressure) renal vascular resistance • Influences PGC • Constriction of the afferent arteriole will result in a decrease of PGC and GFR • An increase in efferent arteriolar resistance will increase PGC
Bilateral urinary obstruction (BUO) • No triphasic pattern • Modest increase in RBF after 90 min but between 90 min to 7 hours, RBF is significantly lower than UUO. • Increase renal vascular resistance (RVR) • After 24 hours, low RBF, high RVR same as UUO
Bilateral urinary obstruction (BUO) • Ureteral pressure higher than in UUO • Effective RBF is markedly decreased after 48 hours • GFR is significantly decreased after 48 hours
Pathophysiology Obstructive Uropathy Obstructive Nephropathy
Consequences of urinary tract obstruction • Reduced glomerular filtration rate • Reduced renal blood flow (after initial rise) • Impaired renal concentrating ability • Impaired distal tubular function • Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus • Renal salt wasting • Renal tubular acidosis • Impaired potassium concentration • Postobstructive diuresis
Consequences of urinary tract obstruction • Progressive and permanent changes to the kidney occur • Tubulointerstitial fibrosis • Tubular atrophy and apoptosis • Interstitial inflammation
Diagnosis • History • Pain, renal colic • Inability to void effectively • Alteration in pattern of micturition (anuria, polyuria, nocturia) • Recurrent UTI • New-onset or poorly controlled hypertension • Polycythemia • Recent gynecologic or abdominal surgery
History • Medication history • Antihistamines, antipsychotics, antidepressants • Ethylene glycol, indinavir, methotrexate, phenylbutazone, or sulfunamides • Methysergide or other natural-occurring ergotamines • Occupational exposure history • Textile manufacturers, shipyard workers, roofers or asbestos miners (retroperitoneal fibrosis) • Textile workers, rubber manufacturing workers, leather workers, painters, hairdressers, drill press workers (bladder cancer)
Physical Examination • Signs of dehydration and intravascular volume depletion • Palpable kidney or bladder • Peripheral edema, hypertension, signs of congestive heart failure • Enlargement of pelvic organs (eg. Prostate, uterus) • Examination of external urethra for phimosis, meatal stenosis
Treatment and management • Prehospital Care • Pulmonary edema • Salt and water retention • hypovolemia
Treatment and management • Emergency department care • Investigate and begin treatment of potentially life-threatening complications • Pulmonary edema • Hypovolemia • Urosepsis • Hyperkalemia
Treatment and management • Overriding goal of treatment: reestablishment of urinary flow • Transurethral bladder catheterization • Diagnostic and therapeutic • No urine output = investigate upper tract
Treatment and management • Large PVR = obstruction below the bladder • Fractionating urine removal (?) • Christensen, et al. concluded that fractionating urine removal in bladder obstruction is unjustified • Hematuria and bladder spasm • Gould, et al. : hematuria correlated strongly with degree of bladder wall damage prior to relief of obstruction and not with rate of bladder emptying • Urine should be drained completely and rapidly from an obstructed bladder • Prolonged urine stasis only predisposes to UTI, urosepsis and renal failure
Treatment and management • Calculi – most common causes of unilateral ureteral obstruction • 90% pass spontaneously (calculi <5.0-7.0 mm) • Surgical drainage necessary if with unrelenting pain, UTI, persistent obstruction, progressive loss of renal function • Position of stone determines preferred method of removal
Treatment and management • Bilateral ureteral obstruction – always asymmetric process • mid to proximal ureter – percutaneous nephrostomy • Distal obstruction – cystoscopic placement of ureteral stent • Intrarenal obstruction secondary to crystals or protein casts - hydration
Treatment and management • Further Inpatient care • Decision to admit depends on the need for invasive surgical drainage procedure and complications of obstruction • Replacement of electrolyte disturbances • Further Outpatient care • Depending on specific complications of obstruction, relief of bladder neck obstruction requires prompt follow-up care with a urologist for definitive therapy.
Prognosis • With relief of obstruction • Reversible or irreversible damage? • Obstruction NOT relieved • Complete or incomplete? • Bilateral or unilateral? • Presence or absence of infection
Summary • UTO is an important urologic disorder and a common cause of acute and chronic renal failure • Multiple causes, high clinical suspicion and acumen necessary • UTO is a potentially reversible process • Prompt recognition • Prompt treatment • Prompt consultation/referral
