CPC4.3- CPC4.3- MR 68y Carpenter
Lives in Kuranda. He attends the GP for a ‘check up’ and towards the end of the consultation mentions casually: “I’ve also got a few things happening with the old waterworks, Doc.”
Urine frequency (4-5xday; 2xnight); Terminal dribbling.
Worsening over months - ? couple of years’.
CPC4.3- CPC4.3- Matthew Rice 68y Carpenter
Urgency yes, but then doesn’t pass much urine on forcing. Cannot empty the bladder empty.
Urinary stream - poor Urinary incontinence - occasional but embarrassing. Dysuria, Haematuria No Bowel habit no change, prone to slight constipation Sexual history - heterosexual; 2nd wife Dawn,
monogamous for 23 years. Has early morning erections, but difficulty sustaining an erection. No hx STIs
CPC4.3- CPC4.3- Differential Diagnosis
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)Prostatitis, Cancer, stones, rectal tum.Strictures, UTI, Diuretics,Spinal injury, Autonomic neuropathy ???
What other causes of urinary obstruction? urine retention , lack of urine, urinary dribbling urinary urgency , urination pain , weak urination reduced urine

BPH-MorphologyBPH-Morphology
Microscopically, nodular prostatic hyperplasia consists of nodules of glands and intervening stroma. (both)
The glands variably sized, with larger glands have more prominent papillary infoldings, double layered epithelium (like normal) some may be cystic with secretions.
Nodular hyperplasia is NOT a precursor to carcinoma.

Adenocarcinoma Prostate:Adenocarcinoma Prostate:
Most common cancer in elderly males.Adenocarcinoma. It is rare before the age of 50, but seen in
over 70% of men over 70y old. Many of these carcinomas are small and
clinically insignificant. (Incidental ca)Second common cause of death due to
cancer in males. (First is lung carcinoma)Aetiology unknown - Hormones, genes &
environment most likely. (Not BPH)

Diagnosis:Diagnosis:
Clinical: Digital Rectal examination (DRE) hard, gritty, fixed tumor. Loss of median groove.
Imaging: Ultrasonography (transrectal), CT Scan, MRI.
Laboratory: Tumor Marker – PSA Biopsy - TURP
Note: None of these methods can reliably detect small cancers & microscopic occult cancers may remain in-situ for several years. (PSA misleading*). Occult cancer is more common than clinical ca.

Gleason Grading & Scoring of Prostatic Ca.Gleason Grading & Scoring of Prostatic Ca.
Prostate CancerGleason Grading & Scoring.Gleason Grading & Scoring.
• Grade/Pattern 1 – well defined glands with limited infiltration of the surrounding tissue.
• Grade/Pattern 2 – not well demarcated, pleopmorphic cells.
• Grade/Pattern 3 – Crowding of glands, irregular glands.
• Grade/Pattern 4 – Fusion of glands.
• Grade/Pattern 5 – cell clusters, No clear gland structure.
• Gleason Score: Add to most prominent grades in the slide. E.g. 3+4=7
Gleason score – 1+1=2Gleason score – 1+1=2
Gleason score – 2+2=4Gleason score – 2+2=4
Gleason grade 3: Pleomorphic glands. There is considerable variation in size, shape, and spacing of the glands. The glands are haphazardly infiltrating the stroma; however, they are still discrete (i.e. there is no fusion of glands - a hallmark of Gleason grade 4). Some of the glands have occluded or abortive lumens.
Prostate Cancer – Gleason grade 3Prostate Cancer – Gleason grade 3
? Gleason Grade? Gleason Grade 4 – Gland Fusion, no stroma4 – Gland Fusion, no stroma
Small irregular nests & ribbons - Gleason grade 4+4.
Prostate Cancer
Grade 5 – sheets, no attempts at gland or clustering.
Prostate Cancer-High grade.
Most prostatic tumours include components of two or more patterns and therefore current practice gives the grade of the two most common components and their sum. This is known as the combined Gleason grade or score. For example, in this image many glands in this example are fused (Gleason grade 4); others maintain individual outlines but are closely packed with their neighbours (Gleason grade 3). Therefore, the score is 7 (4+3).

Urinary Calculi:Urinary Calculi:
Dr. Shashidhar Venkatesh MurthyDr. Shashidhar Venkatesh MurthyAssociate Professor & Head of Pathology
NephrolithiasisNephrolithiasis Usually unilateral, small 1-3 mm, Flank pain & tenderness – renal
capsule. Passage marked by Paroxysmal,
intense colicky pain in the back (loin) with radiation to anterior (renal or ureteral "colic“)
“writhing in pain, pacing about, and unable to lie still”
Hematuria macro/micro Larger stones that cannot pass
produce hydronephrosis or hydroureter.
Levels - Clinical symptomsLevels - Clinical symptoms
Ureteropelvic junction - deep flank pain No radiation. Distension of the renal capsule. (Symp. T11-L2)
Ureter – Acute, severe, colicky pain in the flank and ipsilateral lower abdomen with radiation to the testes/vulva (ilioinguinal n.). nausea / vomiting. Upper ureter – cholecystitis. Middle – appendicitis Distal ureter – Pelvic Infl. Dis.
Ureterovesical junction - Cause irritative voiding, urinary frequency and dysuria. Calcium Oxalate

Nephrolithiasis: Nephrolithiasis: Organic matrix(3%) + salts (97%) ~Organic matrix(3%) + salts (97%) ~
Calcium stones (80%):Calcium stones (80%): oxalate/phosphate/urate salts. Increased gut absorption or defective tubular reabsorphtion
of calcium – Common, high pH. Hyperparathyroidism (10%) Hyperuricosuria – high pH
Struvite Stones (15%)Struvite Stones (15%) magnesium ammonium phosphate (triple phos). Staghorn stone. Chronic UTI with gram-negative rods (split urea) pH >7 Proteus, Pseudomonas, and Klebsiella (not E. coli).
Uric acid stones (6%):Uric acid stones (6%): pH <5.5, high protein (meats), malignancy, 25% have gout.
Cystine stones (2%) Cystine stones (2%) Genetic disorder - Failure of reabsorption
Small renal calculus that would likely respond to extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy

Hypercalciuria, Hypocitraturia - commonest risk factor.
A positive family history in 54%.UTI in 62%, recurrent UTI in 60% (T.Phosphate).
Significant association with citrate & Phosphate excretion and UTI.

needs to go. After passing.. He feels the urge but cannot pass..
High frequency, 2-3 times in the night. For several months getting slowly worse Now urine dribbles, Added to this, the
force with which he can urinate is very much reduced and it is difficult for him to avoid soiling his clothing.
