INJURIES TO THE GENITOURINARY
TRACTS.Vahidi
Special examination
A.Catheterization and assessment of injury 1-catheterization 2-CT scan 3-retrograde cystography 4-urethrography 5-arteriography 6-IVP
B.Cystoscopy and retrograde urographyC.Abdominal sonography
Injuries to the kidney
-most common injuries of urinary system-kidney with existing pathologic condition are more
readily ruptured
Etiology-Blunt trauma(80-85%)-Penetrating truma to the flank area should be regarded
as a cause of renal injury until proved otherwise-Associated abdomial visceral injuries are present in
80% of renal penetrating wounds
Pathology & classification
A-early pathologic finding 1)-grade I (the most common)renal contusion microscopic hematuria2)-grade II renal parenchymal laceration perirenal hematoma3)-grade III laceration extending into the renal medulla large retroperitoneal hematoma4)-grade IV laceration extending into the renal collecting system-artry injuries5)-grade V multiple gIV –renal pedicle avulsion main renal artery or vein from penetrating trauma
Pathology & classification (continue)
B-late pathologic findings 1-urinoma 2-hydronephrosis 3-arteriovenous fistula 4-ranal vascular hypertension
TreatmentA.Emergency measuresB.Surgical measures 1)Blunt inguries 85% no operation require operation indicated in: -persitent retroperitoneal bleeding -Urinary extravasation -non viable parenchyma -renal pedicle injuries
Treatment(continue)
2)Penetrating injuries exploration is needed rare exception:minor parenchymal injury with no U. extravasation in 80% of cases:associated organ injury
Treatment(continue)
C.Treatment of complications: urinoma & abscass:drainage malignant hypertention:vascular repair or nephrectomy hydronephrosis:surgical correction or nephrectomy
prognosis-excellent prognosis-IVP & BP monitoring is needed
Injuries to the ureterEtiology: -iatrogenic:tul-pelvic surgery -deceleration accident:avulse the ureter
Clinical finding: -signs & symptoms:fever- flank pain-nausea & vomiting-urinary leakage (within first 10 postoperative days).ileus
Lab exam:hematuria.
Imaging o IVP-retrograde ureterography-spiral CT: extravasation hydronephrosis
o Sonography:hydronephrosis-urinoma
o Radionuclide examining:delayed excretion- accumulation in renal pelvis
Differential diagnosis
Bowel obstruction deep wound infectionPeritonitis acute pyelonephritisFever
Treatment o The best opportunity:in the operating room-until 7-10 dayso Lower ureteral injuries:reimplantation-
ureteroureterostomy-bladder tube flap-trans- ureteroureterostomy
o Midureteral injuries:ureteroureterostomy or trans u. ureteostomy
o Upper ureteral injuries:ureteroureterostomy-auto transplantation-bowel replacement
o Stentingo Prognosis:excellent
Injuries to the bladdero Usually due to external forceo Often associated with perlvic fracture(15% of
pelvic fractures)o iatrogenic injury
Clinical findingso Pelvic fracture : crepitus-painful
o Unable to urinate- Hematuria
o Hemorrhagic shock
o D.R.E.: distinct landmarks
Lab:Hematuria X-ray:pelvic fracture-extravasation Complications:pelvic abscess-peritonitis-
incontinency(partial)
Treatmento Extraperitoneal:foley cath
(bladderneck injury-large bloodclots→surgical management)
o Intraperitoneal:surgical repair
oPrognosis :excellent
Inguries to the urethraClinical findings:lower abdominal pain-
inability to urinate-blood at the uretheral meatus-prostate displacement-perineal hematoma
X-Ray findings:pelvic fracture-extravasation
Complications:stricture-impotency-incontinency
Treatment o Immediate management : cystostomy
o Delayed urethral reconstruction urethroplasty.
o Immediate urethral realignment
