Abstract:
This research is conducted so as to know the importance of ultrasonography in residual urine volume in benign prostatic hypertrophy.
This study is about benign prostatic hypertrophy that causes pressure on urethra and urinary bladder and change their anatomy and function, it also give rise to residual urine post micturation.
The data were collected from Gandi clinic and Sanhuri clinic, using an ultrasound machine and data collection sheet which include patient age above 47 years old ,also includes bladder volume pre and post micturation urine, prostate volume, sign and symptoms, measurement of kidneys, uriter pre and post micturation
The results conclude that the causes of urine retention haematurea, disurea, burning micturation in male above 47 years is benign prostatic hypertrophy which is related with cystitis, calcification and urine infection, residual urine.
Ultrasound scanning is very important modality to detect any prostatic changes in old men patients and to diagnose it early.
- Benign prostatic hypertrophy had been in male above 47 years.
- When the male age was increased Benign prostatic hypertrophy increased.
- The residual urine increased incase of increased prostatic volume.
- There was relationship between volume of urinary bladder pre and post micturation.
- Calcification and cystitis associated with benign prostatic hypertrophy in 40% of patients.
- There was relationship between residual urine volume and cystitis.
