Can color Doppler ultrasound detect urethral calculi

summary

Patients with urethral calculi can be divided into primary urethral calculi and secondary urethral calculi. General primary urethral calculi this is relatively rare. Now let's talk about whether color Doppler ultrasound can detect urethral stones.

Can color Doppler ultrasound detect urethral calculi

First: urine stones can not be found by B ultrasound, but can be found by color ultrasound. The small stones can be discharged by themselves through urethra, and the larger stones can not be discharged by themselves. There are extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, electrohydraulic shock lithotripsy, ultrasonic lithotripsy and lithotripsy forceps. The patients with large stones and no lithotripsy equipment can be treated with suprapubic cystolithotomy. The patients with bladder infection should be treated with active treatment of inflammation at the same time.

Second: Color Doppler ultrasound does not mean that there is no stone. The anterior urethral calculi were compressed by the proximal urethra of the calculi under the anesthesia of penile root block to prevent the calculi from retreating. Sterile liquid paraffin was injected, and then pushed gently to the distal urethra to hook or clamp out. If it is difficult to remove the calculi, ureteroscopic lithotripsy can be selected.

Third, B-ultrasound and X-ray examination are helpful to make a definite diagnosis. Some patients even see stones through the urethral orifice, secondary stones in the urethral diverticulum, no discomfort and urine flow changes during urination, but there are secretions at the urethral orifice, and stones can be touched at the same time.

matters needing attention

When patients have urethral calculi, it is usually accompanied by a series of adverse symptoms, such as difficulty in urination, increased frequency of urination, and pain when urinating. Different parts of the urinary calculi need to take different treatment methods.
