When the pressure within the bladder overcomes the pressures of the outlet structures urine leaks. ➔ Causes: occurs either due to underactivity of the detrusor muscle e.g. from neurological damage or if urinary outlet pressures is too high e.g. constipationProstate DiseaseBenign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) BPHisacommonconditionaffectingolder men(>50years)andtypicallypresentswith lowerurinarytractsymptoms(LUTS): ● Voidingsymptoms(obstructive):weakor intermittenturinaryflow,straining, hesitancy,terminaldribbling,incomplete emptying ● Storagesymptoms(irritative):frequency, urgencyandincontinence,nocturia ● Complications:UTI,retention,stones Internationalprostatesymptomscore(IPSS)- scoringsystemthatcanbeusedtoassessthe severityofLUTSandimpactonqualityoflifeInvestigations: ● Urinedipstick-ruleoutinfection,haematuria&otherpathology ● U&Es-especiallyifchronicretentionsuspected ● PSA -ifthereisanyobstructivesymptomsorpatientworriedaboutprostatecancer ● Urinaryfrequency-volumechart (foratleast3days) ● Digitalrectalexam(prostate):benignprostateshouldfeel smooth,symmetricaland slightlysoftwithamaintainedcentralsulcus Management: ● Watchfulwaitingissymptomsaremild/manageable ● Alpha-1antagonistse.g.tamsulosin -decreasesmoothmuscletoneoftheprostateand bladdersorapidimprovementinsymptoms.Sideeffects:dizziness,posturalhypotension, drymouth,depression ● 5alpha-reductaseinhibitorse.g.finasteride -usedtoslowenlargementofprostatebutthis takestimesosymptomsmaynotimprovefor6months.Sideeffects:erectiledysfunction (ED),reducedlibido,ejaculationproblems,gynaecomastiaTransurethralresectionofthe prostate(TURP) ● MostcommonsurgicaltreatmentofBPH. ● Involvesremovingpartoftheprostate frominsidetheurethra. ● Aresectoscopeisinsertedintothe urethra,thenprostatetissueisremoved usingadiathermyloop. ● Aimstocreateamoreexpansivespacefor urinetoflowthroughthereforeimproving symptoms. ● Complications:bleeding,infection,urinary incontinence,ED,retrogradeejeculation Prostate cancer ● Mostcommoncancerinmen.Riskfactors:Africanethnicity,BRCAmutation,age&FH. ● Majorityareadenocarcinomasleadingtoperipheralenlargement(ofprostate) ● Many prostatecancersareslowgrowinganddon’tcausedeath. ● Advancedprostatecancercommonlymetastasizes tothe lymphnodesandbones ● Localisedprostatecancerisusuallyasymptomatic- maypresentwithLUTSsimilartoBPH(weakflow, terminaldribbling,hesitancy,frequencyandnocturia) ● Mayalsopresentwithhaematuria,haematospermia, erectiledysfunction ● Advanced/metastasismaypresentwithbonepain, weightloss,spinalcordcompression ● Digitalrectalexam(prostate):hard,irregularprostate withlossofthe centralsulcusProstate specific antigen (PSA) ● PSAisaproteaseenzymeproducedbynormalandmalignantprostate epithelialcells ● AraisedlevelmayindicateprostatecancersoPSAtestingmayleadtoearlier detection ● PSAtestingmaybeunreliablewithahighrateoffalsepositives(leadtofurther unnecessaryinvasivetests) andfalsenegatives(falsereassurance) ● PSAlevelsmayalsoberaisedby:BPH,prostatitisand UTI(postponePSAtest for1monthaftertreatment),ejaculaionorvigorousexercise(ideallynotin previous48hours)andurinaryretention ● WhetherDREexamactuallycausesariseinPSAlevelsisamatterofdebate Investigations ● MultiparametricMRI(producesdetailedpictureofprostategland)isnowfirstline - Resultsreportedusinga5-pointLikertscale - Likertscore≥3offeraprostatebiopsy - Likertscore1-2thediscusspros&consofhavingbiopsy ● Prostatebiopsy-toestablishdiagnosis.Needmultipleneedlesto takesamplefromdifferentareas.Thereare2options: - Transrectalultrasound-guidedbiopsy(TRUS) - Transperinealbiopsy Mainrisks:pain,bleeding,infection,urinaryretentionandED ● Isotopebonescan-tolookforbonymetastases Gleasongradingsystem-basedonhistologyfromtheprostatebiopsy.Helpstodeterminewhat treatmentismostappropriate.Higherscore=morepoorlydifferentiated(worseprognosis) TNMstagingcanalsobeusedManagement ● MDTteam ● Watch&wait-elderly,multiplecomorbidities,lowGleasonscore ● Radiotherapy:externalbeamandbrachytherapy.Keycomplicationisproctitis (inflammationintherectum).Alsoincreasesriskofbladder&rectalcancer ● Hormonaltherapy-reducelevelofandrogens(e.g.testosterone)thatstimulate thecancertogrow.Usedincombinationwithradiotherapyoralonein advanced disease.Examples: - SyntheticGnRHagoniste.g.Goserelin(Zoladex) - Bicalutamide(blocksandrogenreceptor) - Abiraterone(androgensynthesisinhibitor - Bilateralorchidectomy-removetesticles ● Surgery-radicalprostatectomy.ErectiledysfunctionisacommoncomplicationPatientpresentswithsuddenonsetofsevere lointogroinpain Thepainisintermittent Nauseousandvomiting Whatdowethink?
