Download or read book Urodynamics written by Paul Abrams and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, physicians studied the appearance and characteristics of urine as a guide to the health of the individual. In contrast, the mechanism of micturition attracted little attention and, until recent years, the study of the lower urinary tract consisted mainly of some form of cystometry and in watching the force of the stream. Exactly when more precise measurements began can be debated but interest in the subject developed rapidly following the improved methods for measuring urinary ftow rates introduced by von Garrelts in 1956. The level of interest and investigation in this subject has since grown quickly though not without debate. Now, after a quarter of a century of endeavour, urodynamics has an established place not only in urology but many other areas of medicine and this book is a lucid account of the current practice of the subject. The special characteristic of this book is that it represents a very cohesive description of the subject as developed in one medical centre. The advantage of this is readily evident by the way in which the Authors have covered the subject, from patient assessment to organisation of urodynamic units, in a logical and practical style. The Authors have also planned the contents so that the reader can follow the evolution of the subject and thereby appreciate the way in which the subject has grown, how the terminology has developed and, perhaps most relevant, how to staff a urodynamic service.
Download or read book Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy written by S. Boyarsky and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 1098 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than 60 years, the Californian Family Hinman has exercised a very considerable influence on the development and practice of the highest grade of urology, not only in the American West but worldwide. The leitmotiv of the Hinman School has been honest and thoughtful consideration of the problems of the genitourinary system gone awry. Character is the quintessence of the Hinmans. This virtue distinguishes the present volume on benign pros tatic hypertrophy assembled and edited by Frank Hinman, Jr. I first came under the spell of Frank Hinman, Sr. via his classic studies of renal counterbalance. In brief, in an experimental animal the ureter of one kidney was ligated and the subsequent renal hypertrophy of its contrala teral mate was studied quantitatively from anatomic and functional stand points. There were two central questions in the Hinman study: How does a normal kidney of an experimental animal recognize that its load has been doubled abruptly? What is the signal for renal hypertrophy? Benign hypertrophy of the prostate is quite different from compensatory hypertrophy of the kidney. It is now known that benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) is not a hypertrophy but a benign tumor consisting of a collection of spheroids of micro- and macrodimensions. In technical terms BPH is an adenofibromyoma. Perusal of the present volume will reveal many fascinating facets of BPH of particular interest to urologists and others with an investigative bent of BPH does not occur in children. BPH occurs as a medical rarity in mind.
Download or read book Urodynamics written by Wolfgang Lutzeyer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The preface to Urodynamics - Upper and Lower Urinary Tract edited by LUTZEYER and MELCHIOR (Springer-Verlag 1973) mentions the self-evidence of using functional examinations in other medical de partments: "It is self-evident that the cardiologist uses the EeG not just routinely, but continuously in an intensive-care unit, where it is computerized and always on call. It is self-evident, too, in gastro enterology and pulmology that a functional analysis is based on readings of different electronic probes. In urology, however, we tend to rely on optical control by cystoscopy, static data in order to reach a functional interpretation that is based on this information alone. " Referring to the preface mentioned above, especially the upper uri nary tract is said to be assessed mainly from an anatomic-morpho logic point of view in the clinical routine, though in this case we are also mainly concerned with an active transport system. 1971, which the Twelve years after the urodynamic meeting in above-mentioned volume was based on, a second urodynamic meet ing took place in Aachen that was called and also dealt with "Re-: viewing the Aachen 1971 Meeting. " Its purpose was to review which of the statements that had been made more than a decade before were still valuable, what had to be added or revised, and which ex perimental tests and results could be clinically applied.
Download or read book The Physiology of the Lower Urinary Tract written by Michael Torrens and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 857 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book we attempt a synthesis of knowledge from two investigative extremes. On the one hand, neurophysiology and neuropharmacology are progressing via the single neuron to a subcellular level; on the other, clinicians are studying the function ofthe human urinary system in vivo as a whole. A special effort must be made over the next decade to bridge this gap. We hope that the information summarized here will catalyse the process. In 1968, de Groat and Ryall published a group of papers in the Journal of Physiology in which modern quantitative electrophysiological techniques were applied to the study ofthe reflexes that regulate bladder Junction. These papers represent alandmark in the history of bladder neurophysiology, forming a dividing li ne between old and new. The earlier techniques of lesioning and stimulation of nervous structures yielded mainly qualitative information which was open to criticism because of lack of precise control over what was actually being destroyed or stimulated. Much of this earlier work was reviewed in an authoritative volume by Bors and Comarr in 1971, entitled Neurolqgical Urology. The 16 years have seen great advances in our understanding ofthe control oflower subsequent urinary tract function.

Book excerpt: Once urology was established as a medical specialty, the initial anatomic-morpho logical point of view was soon supplemented by functional considerations and diagnostic procedures, thanks to the introduction of the cystoscope (NrTzE, 1877) and retrograde pyelography (VOELCKER, ]OSEPH and VON LrCHTENBERG, 1903). Intravenous urography (VOLKMANN, 1924; VON LrCHTENBERG, PFLAUMER and SWICK, 1929) lent roentgen examinations a more functional aspect. The word "urodynamics" refers to the functional approach to the urinary trac- from the renal pelvis and calyces, the ureter and bladder down to the bladder neck and urethra. The embryologically denned topographie regions of the urogenital tract are peripheral relays, while the actual site of action of both normal and patho logical urodynamics is to be found in the various hollow muscular organs. Despite extensive basic research and much knowledge acquired in this neld, the active transport system between site of production and storage, i. e. the renal pelvis and ureter, is still regarded in clinical practice mainly from the anatomic-morphological viewpoint. It is not easy to obtain adequate information for the clinical assessment of functional disturbances of the ureter. For instance, retrograde exploration methods may often be complicated by infection. Clinically applicable methods for functional assessment of the upper urinary tract are (RUTISHAUSER): direct observation of the ureteral orinces, intravenous and retro grade visualization by roentgen contrast medium, sequential pyelography, roentgen kymography, and cinematography. Such methods allow good functional exploration by an experienced investigator but they yield hardly any objectively reproducible records.
