23
Q

Involuntary discharge of urine

24
Abnormal passage from a hollow organ to the surface or from one organ to another
Fistula
25
Abnormal dilation of the renal pelvis and the calyces of one of both kidneys due to pressure from accumulated urine that cannot flow past an obstruction in the urinary tract
Hydronephrosis
26
Loss of large amounts of plasma protein usually albumin by way of urine due to increased permeability of the glomerular membrane
Nephrotic syndrome
27
Excessive or frequent urination after going to bed
Nocturia
28
Diminished capacity to form and pass urine, resulting in inefficient excretion of the end products of metabolism
Oliguria
29
Inherited disease in which sacs of fluid called cysts develop in the kidneys
Polycystic kidney disease PKD
30
Disorder caused by the failure of urine to pass through the ureters to the bladder usually due to the impairment of the valve between the irretrievable and bladder or obstruction in the ureter
Vesicoureteral reflux VUR
31
Rapidly developing malignant neoplasm of the kidney that usually occurs in children
Wilms tumor
32
Congenital absence of one or both testes
Anorchidism
33
Failure to form or ejaculate semen
Aspermia
34
Inflammation of the skin covering the glans penis
Balanitis
35
Malformation in which he urethra opens on the dorsum of the penis
Epispadias
36
Accumulation of serous fluid in a saclike cavity especially the testis and associated structures
Hydrocele
37
Developmental anomaly in which the urethra opens on the underside of the penis or in extreme cases on the perineum
Hypospadias
38
Stenosis or narrowing of preputial orifice so that the foreskin cannot be retracted over the glans penis
Phimosis
39
Swelling and distention of veins of the spermatic cord
Varicocele
40
Screening test that assesses the rectal wall surface for lesions or abnormally firm areas that might indicate cancer
Digital rectal examination DRE
41
Measures the contraction of muscles that control urination using electrodes placed in the rectum ad urethra
Electromyography
42
Endoscopy of the urinary bladder for evidence of pathology, obtaining biopsies of tumors or other growths, and removal of polyps
Cystoscopy
43
Endoscopy of the kidney using a specialized three-channel endoscope that enables visualization ad irrigation of the kidney
Nephroscopy
44
Endoscopy of the urethra using s specialized endoscope, typically for lithotripsy or TURP
Urethroscopy
45
Test that determines the amount of urea nitrogen present in a blood sample
Blood urea nitrogen
46
Test that determines the causative organism of a disease and how the organism responds to various antibiotics
Culture and sensitivity
47
Blood test used to determine prostatic disorders especially prostatic cancer
Prostate specific antigen PSA
48
Radio graphic exam of the urinary bladder using a contrast medium
Cystography
49
Procedure that assesses volume and pressure in the bladder at various stages of filling using saline and a a contrast medium introduced into the bladder through a catheter
Cystometrography
50
Radiograph exam | Of the kidneys and urinary tract after IV injection of a contrast medium
Intravenous pyelography
51
Radio graphic exam to determine the location size and shape of the kidneys in relationship to other organs in the abdominopelvic cavity and to identify abnormalities of the urinary system
Kidney ureter bladder KUB radiography
52
Radiological exam of the bladder and urethra performed before during and after voiding using a contrast medium to enhance imaging
Voiding cystourethrography VCUG
53
Medical procedure used to filter toxic substances from the patients bloodstream such as excess electrolytes and nitrogenous wastes
Dialysis
54
Fixation of a floating or mobile kidney
Nephropexy
55
Surgical procedure that involves inserting a resectoscope into the urethra to chip away at the prostate gland to remove the obstruction and flushing out the chips an sending them for analysis to detect possible evidence of cancer
