hydroureter
obstruction (probably congenital) at the ureteral orifice
Hydronephrosis
abnormal collection of urine within the renal pelvis
Hydronephrosis
no echos on ultrasound
Type I RTA
the serum is acidic but the urine is alkaline, secondary to an inability to secrete protons into the urine.
Type II (Proximal) RTA
inability to reabsorb bicarbonate.
Gross, painless hematauria
Bladder tumor
invade into the renal vein
RCC
Renal Cell Carcinoma
Urinary Tract Infection
acute cystitis
painful bladder
interstitital cystitits
acute/chronic pylonephritis
Most common UTI pathogen
E. Coli
Inflammation of the bladder
acute cystitis
Hyperemia of the mucosa
Acute cystitis
Acute infection of the renal pelvis interstitum

Vesicoureteral reflux
Acute pyelonephritis
Abnormal flow of urine back to the ureters
Vesicoureteral reflux
Persistent or recurring episodes of acute pyelonephritis that leads to scarring
Chronic pyelonephritis
Intratubular aggregations of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs).
Pathogenesis of pathogens
1. attachment to epithelium and causes inflammation
2. PMNS cross over epithelial wall into urine
Signs of glomerular damage
Decreased glomerular membrane surface area
Glomerular capillary blood flow
Blood hydrostatic pressure
Glomerularnephritis
Inflammation of the glomerulus
Mechanisms of Injury
Depositions of circulating soluble antigen-antibody complexes
Formation of antibodies against the glomerular basement membrane
streptococcal release of NA
Goodpasture Syndrome
Rapidly progressing glomerularnephritis (antibodies)
Minimal change disease
effacement of epithelial cells (podocytes) foot processes and loss of normal charge barrier
Minimal change disease
albumin leaks out and proteinemia ensues
Focal glomeruloscelerosis
Area of collagenous sclerosis runs across the middle of the glomerulus.
Focal Glomerulosclerosis
Chronic Kidney Failure
Irreversible loss of renal function that affects nearly all organ systems
Stages of chronic renal failure
1. chronic renal insufficiency
2. chronic renal failure
3. end-stage renal failure
Hypospadias
Chordee - phallus is completely separated from perineum or still tethered downwards from connective tissue or with undescended tissues
Epispadias
failure of midline penile fusion much earlier in embrogenesis
Extrophy of the bladder
malformation of the bladder and urethra in which bladder is "inside out"
