COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY UROGRAPHY IN EVALUATION OF PATIENTS WITH HEMATURIA

Dr. Prateek Singh Patel, Dr. S. C. Baser

Abstract :

Objective: The objective of the work was to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of computed tomography urography in patients with hematuria. Methods: MDCT Urography of 50 patients with history of hematuria were evaluated for various causes of hematuria and to determine the diagnostic efficacy in terms of sensitivity and specificity of MDCTU. Result and Conclusion: In our study, maximum incidence of hematuria was found in older age group of 50 years or more with male preponderance. Majority of lesion were benign with calculus being the most common ,other beingn lesions included pyelonephritis, Pyonephrosis, ureteric strictures , ureteritis, Angiomyolipoma ,etc and Malignant lesions included Renal cell carcinoma and UB mass. We had a sensitivity of MDCTU being 91.84%, specificity of 100.00%, positive predictive value 100.00%, and accuracy of 92.00% . Our study identifies the contribution of MDCTU in identifying surgically or medically treatable causes of hematuria and thus aid in early and timely treatment.
