Posterior Urethral Valves.
• POSTERIOR URETHRAL VALVES ARE
OBSTRUCTING MEMBRANES WITHIN
THE LUMEN OF THE URETHRA,
EXTENDING FROM THE
VERUMONTANUM DISTALLY.
• OCCUR ONLY IN BOYS.
• COMMONEST CAUSE OF BLADDER
OUTLET OBSTRUCTION AT UCH,
IBADAN.
Posterior Urethral valves.
Posterior Urethral Valves:
Epidemiology.
• INCIDENCE: 1/ 5000 – 8,000 male infants.
1/1,250 by recent foetal Uss.
• GENETICS: debatable, but have been
seen in siblings.
Posterior Urethral Valves:
Clinical presentation.
• PRE-NATAL PRESENTATION:
Distended, thick walled foetal bladder.
Hydronephrosis.
Oligohydramnios. Most of the amniotic fluid
after the 16th/52 of gestation depend on
the foetal urine. Oligohydramnios would
suggest primary renal impairment or
obstruction.
Posterior Urethral Valves:
Clinical presentation.
•
POST- NATAL DIAGNOSIS:
TIME AND MODE OF PRESENTATION
WOULD DEPEND ON THE SEVERITY
OF THE CONDITION.
1. RESPIRATORY DISTRESS.
2. URAEMIA AND SEPSIS.
3. ABDOMINAL DISTENTION.
4. DIFFICULTY WITH MICTURITION.
Posterior Urethral Valves:
Clinical presentation.
• TREAT ACUTE, ASSOCIATED
PROBLEMS.
• RELIEVE UPPER TRACT
OBSTRUCTION.
• INVESTIGATE TO ESTABLISH
DIAGNOSIS. VCUG- ‘Gold standard’
Poterior Urethral Valves:
Clinical presentation.
• Features that can be seen on VCUG.
1. Dilated,thick walled, trabeculated bladder
2. Elongated and dilated prostatic urethra with
narrow bladder neck.
3. Folds of valves could be seen as filling defects
from the area of the verumontanum.
4. VUR, diverticula, pseudoresidual, etc.
5. Valves unilateral reflux and renal dysplasia
syndrome. (VURD)
MCUG in a Child.
Posterior Urethral Valves:
Treatment.
• PRIMARY VALVES ABLATION.
• VESICOSTOMY AND DELAYED VALVES
ABLATION.
• TEMPORARY UPPER TRACT
DIVERSION.
Posterior Urethral Valves:
Long term management.
• VESICO URETERIC REFLUX.
1.
Prophylactic antibiotic cover.
2.
Ureteric re-implantation.
Posterior Urethral Valves:

URINARY INCONTINENCE:
