Overview Urinary Tract Infection
Upper UTIs2 • Pyelonephritis • Lower UTIs1 • Cystitis • Urethritis • Epididymitis • Prostatitis UTIs are one of the most common bacterial infections in adult women3 Overview
Anatomy Urinary Tract Infection
Mesonephric Tissue • Mesonephric Duct • MetanephricBlastema Mesonephric tissue Mesonephric duct Embryology
Seminal vesicles • Vas deferens • Epididymis Mesonephric ducts persist Mesonephric duct Testes Vas deferens Bladder Prostate Seminal vesicle Male Development Descended testes
Upper vagina • Uterus • Oviducts Paramesonephric ducts persist Paramesonephric duct Ovary Developing uterus Female Development
Female urethras are shorter fecal flora contamination and colonization of urinary tract is more likely1,2 Bladder Bladder Short Urethra Long Urethra Anatomy
Physiology Urinary Tract Infection
Protection from UTI:1 • Acidic environment • Vaginal flora • Cervico-vaginal antibodies • Fecal flora enter the urethra and ascend into the urinary tract1,2 • Women bladder (cystitis) • Men prostate (prostatitis) Bladder Anal canal Physiology
UropathogenicE. coli have adhesions for binding to vaginal and uroepithelial cells1 Uropathogenic E. coli
WOMENwhoare non-secretors of histo-blood group antigens may have E. coli-binding gangliosides on their vaginal epithelial cells1 Blood Group E. coli
Microbiology Urinary Tract Infection
Women with Acute Cystitis:1 E. coli is by far the major cause of UTIs in women1 10% 10% 80% S. saprophyticus causes about 10 % of UTIs in young, sexually active women1 Infection: Women
Men with Acute Prostatitis:1 3% 11% Men have a much wider variety of microbes that cause prostatitis1 7% 6% 58% 9% 6% Infection: Men
Children < 5 years old:1 Male infants were predominantly infected with Klebsiella pneumoniae1 10% 20% 40% 30% Infection: Children
Pathology Urinary Tract Infection
Women are more likely to get a UTI after becoming sexually active1,2 • Clitoral massage allows bacteria to gain entry into the bladder1,2 • Diaphragm placement on the cervix may promote bacterial colonization1,2 • Spermicides raise vaginal pH and promote the colonization of E. coli1,2 Post-Coital UTIs
Pregnancy Predisposes Women to UTIs1,2 • Weight of the uterus may cause urinary stasis • Progesterone causes smooth muscle in the ureters to relax • Pregnant women are slightly immunocompromised Pregnancy
Menopause Predisposes Women to UTIs1,2 • Atrophy of vaginal mucosa • Rise in vaginal pH • Healthy vaginal lactobacillus replaced by pathogenic bacteria Menopause Lactobacillus near a squamous epithelial cell
Very Rare! Acute cystitis in Men is … • Causes include:1,2 • Congenital abnormalities • Uncircumcised penis • Insertive rectal intercourse • Intercourse with a partner who has vaginal colonization of E. coli • HIV infection Cystitis in Men
The majority of urethritis in Men is associated with STDs1,2 • Neisseria gonorrhoeae • Chlamydia trachomatis • Mycoplasma hominis • Ureaplasmaurealyticum Depiction of N. gonorrhoeae Urethritis in Men
Prostatitis in men mostly occurs when pathogens enter the prostate via intraprostatic reflux of urine1 Prostatitis Prostatitis
Prostatic hyperplasia predisposes Men over 50 to UTIs1,2,3 • Prostatic hyperplasia causes:2,4 • Chronic urinary retention • Incomplete bladder emptying Prostatic Hyperplasia
Epidemiology Urinary Tract Infection
Symptomatic Infection Prostatic Hyperplasia Pregnancy Neonates Young children Asymptomatic Bacteriurea Prevalence (%) Epidemiology
Over 50% of Women will have a UTI 3-11% of all pregnant women will have asymptomatic bacteriuria during pregnancy2,3 25-30% will develop pyelonephritis3 40% of these women will develop acute cystitis3 Adult Women
15-20% of 65-70 year old women • 20-50% of women greater than 80 Have Bacteriuria1 • Estrogentherapy has been shown to:1 • Reduce vaginal pH • Restore vaginal flora • Decrease incidence of bacteriuria Post-Menopausal Women
Risk Factors Urinary Tract Infection
Clinical Presentation Urinary Tract Infection
The usual symptoms of urinary frequency, urgency, and suprapubic pressure are not helpful for pregnant women4 Sex-Specific Symptoms
