Objectives• To know basic structure and functions of the kidney
• To know main symptoms of renal disease
• To know how to assess kidney functions
![Page 3: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Anatomy
• The kidneys are retroperitoneal organs lie on either side of the spine at level of T12-L3
• Normal kidneys are 11-14 cm in length
• Right kidney lies 1.5 cm lower than the left because of the liver

Histology
Each kidney contains one million nephrons comprising a glomerulus, PCT, Loop of Henle, distal tubule and collecting duct
![Page 5: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Blood and nerve supply to the kidney
• The kidneys receive 25% of the cardiac output
• T10-12/L1 roots innervate the renal capsule and the ureter and pain from these structures is felt in these dermatomes
![Page 6: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The Glomerulus
• A glomerulus is a capillary tuft that is surrounded by Bowman's capsule
• A glomerulus receives its blood supply from an afferent arteriole Unlike most other capillary beds, the glomerulus drains into an efferent arteriole
• The resistance of these arterioles results in high pressure within the glomerulus, aiding the process of ultrafiltration, where fluids are forced out of the capillaries and into Bowman's capsule
• A glomerulus and its surrounding Bowman's capsule constitute a renal corpuscle, the basic filtration unit of the kidney
• The rate at which blood is filtered through all of the glomeruli, and thus the measure of the overall renal function, is the glomerular filtration rate (GFR).

The glomerular layers
Endothelial cells
Glomerular basement membrane
Podocytes
![Page 8: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Primary functions of the kidneys
• Excretion of waste products e.g. urea
• Maintain body water and electrolytes
• Regulation of BP through renin angiotensin system
• Endocrine function in erythropoiesis and vitamin D metabolism
![Page 9: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The kidneys produce urine which is passes to the bladder through the ureters
As the bladder fills completely, the smooth muscle layer (detrusor) contracts under parasympathetic control to allow urine to pass through the urethra
![Page 10: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Symptoms of renal disease
I. Kidney (upper urinary tract symptoms): Pain and swelling
II. Lower urinary tract symptoms: voiding pain (pain passing urine), frequency, urgency, hesitancy
III. Change in urine volume (polyuria, oliguria, anuria) or color (haematuria), content (proteinuria)
IV. General symptoms: oedema, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath
![Page 11: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Kidney (Upper urinary tract) symptoms
![Page 12: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Pain A. Renal colic
• A severe sudden sustained loin pain • It often radiates to the groin
• It is caused by sudden obstruction in the urinary tract usually by a calculus or a blood clot
• It is often associated with nausea and vomiting
![Page 13: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
B.Dull ache in the loins
• Usually due to stretch of the capsule of the kidney e.g. in glomerulonephritis, polycystic kidney and hydronephrosis
• Lion pain with fever, rigors, pain on voiding suggest infection of the kidneys (acute pyelonephritis)
• Many patients with chronic obstruction are however pain-free
![Page 14: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Lower urinary tract symptoms
![Page 15: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Dysuria
• Pain or discomfort felt during or immediately after passing urine
• It is often described as a burning sensation felt at the urethral meatus , or the suprapubic region
• The most common cause is infection and /or inflammation of the
bladder[cystitis]and frequency(desire to pass urine more often) is usually present
![Page 16: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Voiding symptoms
![Page 17: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Voiding symptoms
• During storage phase
• During voiding phase
• After micturition
• Incontinence
![Page 18: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Storage symptoms
Urgency
• A sudden strong need to pass urine and may cause incontinence if there is no opportunity to urinate. Is due to overactivity of detrusor muscle or abnormal stretch receptor activity from the bladder
Frequency
• Means frequent micturition of relatively small amounts of urine
![Page 19: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Causes
• Cystitis, urthritis or stone bladder causing irritation of the bladder wall
• Contracted bladder as occurs in Bilharziasis; the diminished capacity of the bladder leads to frequent micturition
• Chronic retention of urine e.g. by enlarged prostate small amount of urine overflow from the bladder at frequent intervals
• Cancer bladder
• Psychogenic factors as anxiety.
![Page 20: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Voiding phase symptoms
Hesitancy: delay or difficulty in initiating urine flow
• In men over 40, it is commonly due to bladder outlet obstruction by prostate enlargement
• In women, it suggests urethral obstruction due to stenosis or uterine prolapse
Poor flow: reduction in urinary stream
![Page 21: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
After micturition symptoms
• Dribbling and incomplete emptying are caused by obstruction
• Incontinence : involuntary release of urine may occur
I. With the need to void (urge incontinence) caused by overactive detrusor
II. or with increased intra abdominal pressure (stress incontinence) due to weakness of pelvic floor following childbirth
![Page 22: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Symptoms of bladder outlet obstruction

• Poor flow
• Dribbling
![Page 23: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

![Page 24: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Polyuria
Means increased volume of urine as the capacity of the bladder is limited, polyuria is associated with frequency
N.B : In healthy adults urine out put will approximate to the fluid intake minus the insensible fluid losses through the skin and respiratory tract[500-800 ml/day], average 2-3 liters/day
Causes
1-Diabetes mellitus (due to osmotic effect of glucose)
2-Chronic renal failure especially with chronic tubulointertsitial fibrosis 3-Diabetes insipidus 4- Hypercalcaemia (due to impaired tubular concentrating mechanism)
5- Hypokalemia (due to impaired tubular concentrating mechanism)
6- Excessive fluid intake due to psychiatric disease.
![Page 25: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Oliguria
Means diminished volume of urine <500 ml\day
Causes
1- Diminished intake of fluids
2- Hot weather
2- Pre-renal failure
3- Initial stage of acute renal failure
4- Terminal stage of chronic renal failure
![Page 26: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Anuria
Means complete absence of urine formation so that no urine reaches the bladder and the patient has no desire to micturate
Causes
• lower urinary tract obstruction when bladder neck or urethral obstruction causes urinary retention
• Spinal injury through neurological damage
![Page 27: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Change in urine colour
![Page 28: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Haematuria
• Means passage of red blood cells in urine
• It can be
I. Macroscopic causing a reddish discoloration of the urine
II. Microscopic when excess red
cells are detected in urinary sediment
![Page 29: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
• Causes
1 -Prerenal e.g. Haemoragic diseases as purpura and over dose of anticoagulants
2-Renal e.g. Stones, tumours, glomerulonephritis, and renal T.B
3-Ureter: stone and tumours
4 -Bladder : cystitis, stone and tumours
5 -Prostate : prostatitis, prostatic hypertrophy and tumours
6 -Urethra: trauma, stricture, stone and tumours
![Page 30: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
It should be noted that
• Terminal haematuria indicates a lesion in the urethra, prostate , or bladder neck while total haematuria means the lesion is higher up
• Haematuria associative with renal colic is suggestive of stone
• Painless frank haematuria is suggestive of tumour
• Microscopic haematuria is suggestive of a parenchymatous lesion as glomerulonephritis
![Page 31: Clinical manifestations of_renal_diseasesffff - copy (2)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5551607db4c905e1708b50d1/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Differential diagnosis of haematuria (causes of reddish urine)
• Contamination of urine by menstrual blood
• Free hemoglobin due to intravascular hemolysis
• Free myoglobin in rhabdomyolysis
• Drug therapy : rifampcin
