|
pseudohematuria

|
etiologies of pseudohematuria (5)

food (beets, rhubarb) or meds (pyridium, phenothiazines) or diseases (porphyria).
|

|
|

|
clots
|
|
findings in urinalysis that indicates a glomerular source
|

|
ANA, RF, complement levels; ANCA, anti-GBM; ASO, hepatitis serologies, cryoglobulins
|
|
lab test to order if bladder cancer suspected?
|
urine cytopathology
|
|
4 imaging modalities used to evaluate hematuria
|
IVP, US, CT, CT urogram
|
|
conditions where an IVP is used as an imaging modality in the evaluation of hematuria
|
IVP is the definitive test for medullary sponge kidney disease and papillary necrosis; it is superior to US for detection of stones or cancer in the ureters
|
|
When is US more advantageous as imaging modality for hematuria?
|
Superior to IVP for ADPKD, renal cell CA, small bladder CA
|
|
What are the disadvantages to using renal US?
|
Limited in detection of small solid lesions (<3 cm)
|
|
When should CT be used in the evaluation of hematuria?
|
Superior to IVP for nephrolithiasis; mass observed with US - CT better defines the mass
|
|
most sensitive test for hematuria
|
CT urogram
|
|
2 subtypes of ADPKD
|
ADPKD1 (85% to 95%) - chromosome 16; ADPKD2 (5% - chromosome 4
|
|
usual clinical presentation of ADPKD
|
gross or microscopic hematuria in 50%; hypertension; +/- flank pain, palpable abdominal mass
|
|
diagnostic test for papillary necrosis
|
IVP or CT urogram
|
|
conditions that precipitate papillary necrosis
|
SCD, DM, NSAIDs, obstruction, TB
|
|
nonglomerular causes of hematuria
|
exercise-induced, ADPKD, papillary necrosis, stones, infections, malignancies
|
|
3 most common glomerular causes of isolated hematuria without significant proteinuria (<500 mg/day)
|
IgA nephropathy, thin basement membrane disease, and Alport syndrome
|
|
diagnostic test for IgA nephropathy
|
Renal biopsy; IgA immune complex deposits along glomerular mesangium
|
|
treatment for IgA nephropathy
|
ACEI/ARB (if + proteinuria), Immunosuppressive agents (if creatinine rising rapidly or if urine protein >1 g/day); Fish oil if >1 g/day proteinuria
|
|
treatment for thin basement membrane disease (benign familial hematuria)
|
no treatment
|
|
treatment of Alport syndrome
|
supportive
|
|
associated findings in Alport syndrome (5)
|
