  • Obstructive uropathy
    Obstructive uropathy is a structural or functional hindrance of normal urine flow, sometimes leading to renal dysfunction (obstructive nephropathy).
  • Fournier gangrene

  • Pneumaturia
    Pneumaturia is the passage of gas or "air" in urine.
  • Peutz–Jeghers syndrome
    Peutz–Jeghers syndrome (often abbreviated PJS) is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder characterized by the development of benign hamartomatous polyps in the gastrointestinal tract and hyperpigmented macules on the lips and oral mucosa (melanosis).
  • Zellweger syndrome
    Zellweger syndrome, also called cerebrohepatorenal syndrome, is a rare congenital disorder characterized by the reduction or absence of functional peroxisomes in the cells of an individual.
  • Urinoma
    A urinoma, also pararenal pseudocyst, is an encapsulated collection of extravasated urine and typically found in the area adjacent to the kidneys or to extend into the retroperitoneum.
  • Enuresis
    Enuresis (from the Ancient Greek ἐνούρησις enoúrēsis) is a repeated inability to control urination.
  • Emphysematous cystitis
