ABSTRACT

Spontaneous rupture of the urinary excretory system is a rare condition. It is mainly associated with obstruction of the excretory system and is usually unilateral. We report a 58 years old male who, during the performance of a computed tomography of the urinary system, felt an intense lumbar pain. A bilateral rupture at the level of the fornix was found. The patient had an uneventful evolution thereafter. Fifteen days later a new computed tomography showed indemnity of the urinary excretory system.

ABSTRACT

Main findings We describe the use of a novel endoscopic approach in the management of unremitting gross hematuria following post-percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in a 65-years-old male. This approach proved successful and cost-effective in managing haemorrhage post-PCNL when renal angiography failed to localize the source of bleeding. Case hypothesis The recommended treatment modality for renal calculi ≥ 2cm is PCNL. It is essential that clinicians are aware of the various complications that can arise from PCNL, including arteriovenous fistula, which is typically managed with renal angio-embolization. The development of a renal arteriopelvic fistula (APF) is an extremely rare complication, and accounts of haemorrhage from renal APF and its treatment have not been well-described in the literature. We successfully hypothesized that the ureteroscopic localization, fulguration, and closure with a fibrin sealant at the site of the arterial bleed results in optimal treatment for this clinical presentation. We report this case in detail. Promising Future Implications The successful and cost-effective endoscopic approach described here for treatment of post-PCNL renal APF and unremitting gross hematuria ought to be considered as an adjunct to renal angiography and embolization when the source of bleeding cannot be accurately identified using traditional imaging modalities. .

ABSTRACT

La lesión de la vía urinaria superior con extravasación urinaria ocasionada por un traumatismo abdominal cerrado es infrecuente y, a menudo, no reconocida en una evaluación inicial.Un diagnóstico tardío de esta lesión aumenta significativamente la morbilidad. Se presentan dos casos, uno con avulsión de uréter superior derecho y el otro con laceración parenquimatosay de pelvis renal derecha con diagnóstico tardío y complicacionesgraves postraumatismo abdominal cerrado directo. El conocimiento del mecanismo del traumatismo y la evaluación de signos y síntomas locales son datos de importancia parasospechar una lesión pieloureteral, independientemente de la gravedad del traumatismo. La ausencia de hematuria inicial no es infrecuente y su presencia y grado no guarda relación con lagravedad de la lesión. Una tomografía computada abdominal con contraste endovenoso, evaluada en fase excretora tardía, permite la identificación precoz de una extravasación de orina.


An injury to the upper urinary tract with urinary extravasation caused by blunt abdominal trauma is uncommon and often unrecognized in an initial evaluation. A late diagnosis of this injury significantly increases morbidity. Two cases are discussed, one with avulsion of right upper ureter and the other one with parenchymal and right renal pelvis laceration with delayed diagnosis and severe complications subsequent to a direct blunt abdominal trauma. Knowledge of the mechanismof trauma and the assessment of local signs and symptoms are important data for suspecting ureteropelvic injury regardless of the trauma severity. The absence of initial hematuria is notuncommon and their presence and degree is unrelated to the severity of the injury. An abdominal computed tomography with IV contrast evaluated in delayed excretory phase allows an early detection of extravasation of urine.

ABSTRACT

El pediatra que atiende niños en servicio de urgencia recibe pacientes politraumatizados, en los cuales es relevante descartar una lesión de riñon o de vías urinarias, las que pueden ser silenciosas en sus manifestaciones clínicas y en general requieren resolución quirúrgica de urgencia. A continuación se describen los problemas urológicos que constituyen una emergencia y la forma correcta de estudio y tratamiento

ABSTRACT

This is a report of a patient who had a calculus escaped from the renal pelvis following a blunt abdominal trauma which caused rupture of the pelviureteric junction. Haematuria was the only reliable symptom of the injury. Intravenous Urography and ultrasound examination were helpful not only in the diagnosis of the injury, but also in confirming the extrusion of the stone. Early diagnosis and surgical repair gave excellent results

ABSTRACT

Se presentan 18 casos de sección uretra posterior secundarias a fractura de pelvis. En 15 se usó la vía transpubiana (precoz 11 casos y tardía 4 casos) y en 3 se reparó endoscópicamente. El seguimiento medio es de 51,2 meses. En el 88 por ciento el mecanismo fue atropello, el resto fue por aplastamiento. El 50 por ciento ingresa con algún procedimiento quirúrgico previo sobre la vía urinaria baja. En el 100 por ciento la fractura comprometía por lo menos una rama pubiana. En los reparados precozmente con cirugía previa el 71,4 por ciento tuvo infección y el 14,2 por ciento tuvo filtración. Sin cirugía previa el 25 por ciento tuvo infección pero no hubo filtración. En los reparados tardíamente hubo 50 por ciento de infección y 25 por ciento de filtración. De los reparados endoscópicamente el 33,3 por ciento tuvo complicación (filtración fístula glutea). No hubo mortalidad operatoria. En los reparados precozmente el 9 por ciento tuvo incontinencia y no hubo impotencia y el 25 por ciento requirió uretrotomías (3 - 5 procedimientos). Los reparados endoscópicamente no tuvieron incontinencia ni impotencia, pero todos necesitaron uretrotomías
