“…In this patient, the symptom of "something coming down" had been present for years because she had never told any healthcare professional. Other authors have reported pelvic pain, dysuria, vaginal erosions, and urinary and bowel evacuation difficulties in patients with total uterine prolapse [1]. The prevalence of moderate hydronephrosis has been reported as less than 4%, yet it is increased in patients with uterine prolapse [2].…”

“…Bilateral hydronephrosis occurs when urine is unable to drain from the kidney in to the bladder. [5,6] Hydronephrosis is not it self adisease, it occurs as a result of a problem that prevents urine from draining out of the kidneys, ureters and bladder. symtoms are back pain, nausea, vomiting and decresed urine output.…”

Bilateral Hydroureteronephrosis is a condition characterized by dilation or swelling of ureter, urinary bladder and kidney which results in blockage of the urinary tract along with the path of urine flow towards the bladder. This blockage is due to the formation of calculi (stones) or stricture in the kidney. We present a case of 65 years old male patient with a history of Bilateral Hydroureteronephrosis who was was admitted in Santhiram medical and general hospital, Nandyal. CASE REPORTA 65 year-old male patient was admitted to Santhiram medical college and Hospital with chief complaints of pain in the abdomen since 3days, followed by difficulty in passing of urine and drifting of urine, loose stools of 5 episodes per day. Patient was not a known case of Diabetes and Hypertension. Patient was non smoker and non alcoholic. There was no significant past history. There was no notable finding in physical examination expect Anemia, bilateral pedal edema and diffuse tenderness of abdomen. On admission his blood pressure was 110/90 mm of Hg and heart rate was 63 bpm which was regular. He was afebrile On routine laboratory investigations there was a reduced hemoglobin (10.3 g/dl) and elevation of blood urea (5.5 mg/dl). Ultrasound Examination of abdomen and pelvis revealed Bilateral Hydrouretero Nephrosis on right side renal calculi with dilated ureter. Table 1 summarises the laboratory profiles of the patient.

“…It is usually associated with minor urinary complications, including urinary tract infection and incontinence. 5 However, it may also produce severe disease, such as acute renal failure 6 or CRF 7-10 including ESRD, 4,5 resulting from bilateral hydroureteronephrosis. We report a case of ESRD resulting from hydroureteronephrosis due to total UP.…”

“…Only one case was correlated with acute renal failure, and improved with surgery. 6 Some other cases were associated with CRF [7][8][9][10] and to the best of our knowledge, two cases of ESRD required long-term dialysis. 4,5 Unlike our case, the previous patients were investigated in hospital for CRF of unknown etiology, and this progressed to ESRD resulting from POP 2 years later.…”

Renal Failure

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

A 74-year-old woman was admitted to our emergency room complaining of general weakness and anorexia that started 20 days earlier. She denied other underlying diseases that might have provoked chronic renal disease. Her serum creatinine was 12.35 mg/dL. A pelvic examination and computed tomography revealed severe bilateral hydroureteronephrosis with marked cortical thinning induced by total uterine prolapse. She was started on emergency hemodialysis due to her uremic symptoms and severe metabolic acidosis. Despite Foley catheter insertion and manual reduction of uterus for 1 month, renal function was not recovered. The department of gynecology was strongly opposed to performing a procedure to reverse the hydroureteronephrosis due to the irreversibility of her renal function. She is undergoing chronic maintenance hemodialysis. This is a case report of rare end-stage renal disease (ESRD) caused by obstructive uropathy due to pelvic organ prolapse (POP). We should consider POP as a cause of ESRD.
