MISC pathologies of Hepatobiliary System 23

Biliary Stenosis 24

Genitourinary System 25

Urinary System 26

1. A _______kidney that is smaller in size but works normally Hypoplasia 2. Often other kidney is _______ to compensate 3. Significance of this anomaly depends on the volume of ______ 31

Horseshoe Kidney function is generally unimpaired If obstruction is present surgery may be required Most common fusion anomaly Lower poles of kidney are joined Causes a rotation anomaly on one or both sides 32

Horseshoe Kidney 33

1. _____OR ______ rotation of the kidneys Kidney Malrotation 2. No clinical significance unless it causes an obstruction 34

Kidney Malrotation 35

Pelvic or Ectopic Kidney 1. Kidney or kidneys are _____ than normal, often in pelvic region 2. Most asymptomatic but there is an increased incidence of _______ junction obstruction 36

Pelvic or Ectopic Kidney 37

Double Collecting System 38

Double Collecting System 39

Urteterocele Cyst like dilatation of a ureter near its opening into the bladder X-ray demonstrates a filling defect of the bladder US demonstrates a cyst 40

Urteterocele 41

Bladder Diverticula • Con occur congenitally or caused by chronic bladder obstruction and infection 42

1. US demonstrates _____&__________ Polycystic Kidney 2. IVU show bilateral enlargement of the ______, calyceal stretching & distortion (poorly visualized outlines) 3. CT demonstrates a _____ eaten appearance 4. CT & US can detect before conventional xrays 43

1. _____ disease Polycystic Kidney 2. _____ enlarge as pt ages 3. Enlargement destroys normal tissues 4. It is the cause of ______ of end-stage renal disease 44

Inflammatory Diseases 45

1. Can be demonstrated on a CT and US Pyelonephritis 2. IVU will often look normal in a acute attack 3. Interstitial edema causes less visualization of collecting structures 46

1. Bacterial infection of the calyces and renal pelvis Pyelonephritis 2. Stagnation or obstruction of urine flow causes an infection 3. People with recurrent UTI’s have more of a chance of getting this 47

Cystitis 1. Inflammation and congestion of the bladder mucosa 2. Cystography may demonstrate backflow of bladder into ureters 48

Urinary System Calcifications 49

Staghorn Calculus 1. LG calculus that assumes shape of pelvicaliceal junction 2. Most visible on x-ray, IVU or retrograde pyelogram 3. CT’s bone study is the modality of choice 50

Staghorn Calculus 51

Renal Stones 55

Renal Stone 56

Degenerative Diseases 57

Hydronephrosis 1. IVU is largely replaced by CT 2. CT allows diagnosis 90% of the time 3. US is initial modality of choice because it does not require contrast 58

Neoplastic Diseases 59

Tumor (Wilm’s) 1. CT is modality of choice to assessing extent & spread of tumor 1. Largely replaced IVU 2. US differentiates between cystic and solid masses 60

1. IVU or cystogram may demonstrate filling defect of bladder Carcinoma of the Bladder 2. Cystoscopy is method of choice 1. Diagnosis is made via biopsy or resection 3. US, MRI & CT stage the disease once diagnosis is made 61
