  1. 1. CT Urography : Efforts to Reduce the Radiation Dose

    Författare :Pär Dahlman; Anders Magnusson; Anders Sundin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Urinary tract malignancy; renal cell carcinoma; urography; x-ray computed tomography; radiation dosage; dose escalation; hematuria diagnosis; Diagnostic radiology; Diagnostisk radiologi; Radiologi; Radiology;

    Sammanfattning : Computed tomography urography (CTU) is today the imaging method used to investigate patients with suspected urinary tract malignancy, replacing the old imaging method intravenous pyelography (IVP) about a decade ago. The downside of this shift was that the effective radiation dose to the examined patient was eight times higher for CTU compared to IVP. LÄS MER

  2. 2. On the diagnosis and treatment of upper urinary tract stones

    Nyckelord :renal stone; ureteric stone; ESWL; ureteroscopy; morbidity; questionnaire; computed tomography; urography;

    Sammanfattning : Aims: Papers I&II: To compare treatment outcome for renal stones treated with different ESWL-machines and treatment results of ESWL and ureteroscopy (URS) for ureteric stones. Paper III: To investigate the morbidity and incidence of acute renal colic and the proportion of patients with absolute and relative indications for immediate radiological examination. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Long-term outcome of vesicoureteral reflux and reflux nephropathy in adults - clinical and radiological aspects

    Författare :Jan Köhler; Njurmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; nefrologi; nephrology; Urology; Adults; antireflux surgery; pregnancy; reflux nephropathy; Urologi; urinary tract infection; vesicoureteral reflux; urography;

    Sammanfattning : The aim was to study the long-term consequencies of vesicoureteral reflux and reflux nephropathy (RN) in adults, with regard to radiological progression, urinary tract infections, renal functional impairment, hypertension, and to determine if the extent of renal damage can predict the outcome. Attempts to differentiate between acquired and developmental renal damage were also made. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Urologic and metabolic consequences of continent urostomy (Kock reservoir) in children and adolescents

    Författare :Gamal Abd El-Gawad; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Urinary diversion; Continent ileal urostomy; Kock pouch; Complication; Enterocystography; Enterocystometry; Urography; B12; Folic acid; MMA; Quality of life.;

    Sammanfattning : During the last decades, urinary diversion using an intestinal segment has been commonly used in children and adolescents. Kock pouch is a feasible alternative for the children in need of a continent diversion where other alternatives such as Mitrofanoff are excluded for various reasons. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Host-parasite interaction in men with febrile urinary tract infection

    Författare :Peter Ulleryd; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; urinary tract infection; fever; male; Escherichia coli; serotype; virulence; PSA; prostate; prostatitis; TRUS; urography; cystoscopy; treatment; ciprofloxacin;

    Sammanfattning : In a retrospective study, Escherichia coli isolates from 88 men with symptomatic urinary tract infection (UTI) were analysed. A wide array of O:K:H serotypes commonly associated with acute pyelonephritis in women were identified. LÄS MER
