PURPOSE To search for the efficiency of scanning the newborns with routine urinary system ultrasonography. MATERIALS AND METHODS Urinary ultrasonography has been carried out on 721 infants born in or brought to our hospital. During the study, name, sex, week of birth, presence of antenatal diagnosis or urinary tract infections, and pathologies in examinations of the babies were recorded. Ultr...

2–4. Pathology of the urinary system KH Consequences of renal failure. Basic mechanisms of renal failure (prerenal, intrinsic and post-renal), fundamental differences between acute and chronic renal failure. Various categories of renal disease e.g. congenital/inherited, circulatory, toxic, glomerular disease, tubulointerstitial disease, parasitic disease and neoplasia. Lower urinary tract (e.g....

Background: Some people are of the opinion that single episodes of haematospermia should not be thoroughly investigated because usually no significant pathology is found. This attitude towards single episodes of haematospermia may leave some patients with treatable pathology undiagnosed for a considerable length of time and could be considered by others a negligent attitude if the pathology is ...

Introduction: Enterobiasis is the most common parasitosis in world. The literature rarely presents publications on detection of pinworm eggs urine, especially chronic inflammatory processes urinary system. Materials & Methods: We analyzed over past 10 years this pathology. Results&Discussion: presented results show feasibility detecting enterobiosis by urinalysis, which can significantl...

The aim of this paper is to describe the experiments carried out to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of a dynamic-robotic telepathology system for the delivery of pathology services to distant hospitals. The system provides static/dynamic features and the remote control of a robotized microscope over 4 ISDN lines. For evaluation purposes, 184 consecutive cases of frozen sections (60), gastroint...

Overactive bladder (OAB) is a syndrome involving urinary urgency with accompanying increased daytime urinary frequency and nocturia, with or without urgency urinary incontinence, in the absence of an urinary tract infection or other obvious pathology. The detailed OAB pathophysiology remains unclear. There is evidence that OAB pathogenesis also includes abnormal bladder paracrine activity, asso...

Primary tumors of the appendix are rare, while malignant villous adenoma of the appendix invading the urinary bladder is extremely uncommon. We reported the present case of a 63-year-old male with malignant villous adenoma of the appendix invading the urinary bladder. The conventional cystoscope demonstrated a mass at the front right side wall of the urinary bladder, which misdiagnosed as bladd...

Twenty patients with porphyria cutanea tarda who had ingested no alcohol for at least 10 days before sampling were found to possess urinary D-glucaric acid levels similar to those of 30 clinically healthy controls. Correlation between urinary excretion of D-glucaric acid on the one hand and plasma or urinary porphyrin concentrations on the other was not statistically significant. These results ...
