Incidence of Congenital Anomalies of Urinary Tract in Patients with Dysuria in South Maharashtra Population
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Anatomy - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
One hundred and five patients (81 males and 24 females) with symptoms of dysuria associated with urinary tract infections, reflux of urine, urinary stasis were studied at MIMSR Medical College and YCR Hospital, Latur, from Feb 2012 to Feb 2015. These patients were from different areas of South Maharashtra. These cases were evaluated by micturating cystourethrogram (M C U) & retrograde cystourethrography (RCG). The patients with congenital malformation of the urinary tract system were studied separately to find out the incidence of these malformations in South Maharashtra. The Congenital anomalies which we came across were - Posterior Urethral Valves, Urinary bladder diverticulum, Urethral Diveticulum, Prune belly Syndrome & Meatal Stenosis. Most of them were seen in 0-5 years of age & all were male patients. The overall incidence of Congenital anomalies of urinary system in our study is 7.4%. We also calculated incidence of individual Congenital anomaly. The results were analysed and compared with similar other studies.
