hematuria

Edema of the lungs, pleurisy, and pneumonia may also complicate a case.

Hematuria, hemeptysis, and hematemesis may be seen.

Bronchitis and hypostatic inflammation may occur.

The urine always shows presence of albumin.

Think acute interstitial nephritis.

Hematuria with RBC cast? Think glomerulonephritis.

An older man with urinary hesitancy, distended bladder, and rising creatinine? Think post-renal AKI from bladder outlet obstruction.

A patient on furosemide with suspected volume depletion and elevated FENA, don't immediately exclude pre-renal AKI.

Um, you know, typically, those symptoms are either due to the bladder or the prostate.

Um, now, if you see other concerning, you know, symptoms like blood in the urine, um, or issues, pain with urination, that can point to something else.

Like I said, um, prostate cancer specifically doesn't have any telltale signs.

Now, if it's advanced or metastatic disease, you know, in patients who have loss of urinary control or loss of bowel function, you worry about spinal cord compression, that, you know-

... yeah, that can be a very challenging condition to treat.

Um, and then, you know, we do see women, again, for other conditions that are seen both in men and women.

You know, say bladder cancers or blood in the urine Um, we also see both for kidney stones.

Um, so, you know, one... again, I would say one of the more common ones would be overactive bladder.
