ABSTRACT

Objective To study the relationship of bladder residual urine volume and renal function and urinary tract infection in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH). Methods Eighty-one BPH eases from September 2005 to September 2008 were studied retrospectively. All the cases were divided into group A (53 cases, the residual urine volume <60 ml), group B (18 cases, the residual urine volume 60-200 ml),and group C (10 cases, the residual urine volume 200 ml). Blood urea nitrogen(BUN), serum ereatinine (Cr) and urine bacterial culture were observed. Results The BUN and serum Cr in group A, B and C were (5.90 ± 3.01) mmol/L, (90.13 ± 25.08)μmol/L, (7.85±3.53) mmol/L, (128.36 ±30.25) μmol/L and (10.57 ± 4.01)mmol/L, (152.11 ± 36.68) μmol/L, respectively. The BUN and serum Cr in group C were higher than those in group A and B (P < 0.01 or < 0.05). And there was significant difference between group A and group B (P< 0.05). The incidence of urinary tract infection in group A ,B and C was 28.3%(15/53), 44.4%(8/18), 50.0%(5/10), respectively. There was significant difference between group A and group B, C (P < 0.05). But there was no significant difference between group B and group C (P 0.05). Eacherichia was the main bacteria in urinary tract infection. Conclusion The increase of bladder residual urine volume in patients with BPH enhances renal failure and urinary tract infection.
