Abstract
Hematuria can have a wide range of causes, including calculi, neoplasms, infection, trauma, drug toxicity, coagulopathy, and pelvic varices. Occasionally, the cause is revealed by a clinical history of prolonged exercise or by recent instruments. Assessment for urologic malignancy is probably the most important reason for evaluating these patients; therefore, examinations with a high sensitivity for the detection of neoplasms are essential. The ability to detect other possible causes of hematuria is also importantFile in questo prodotto:
