Slide 2-

Objectives Clinical indications for performing ED renal US Approach to performing the US study Normal anatomy Abnormal findings Clinical Impact
Slide 3-

Clinical Indications for ED Renal Ultrasound Suspected renal colic Colicky flank pain radiating to groin Hematuria Clinical question: Presence of hydronephrosis Absence of other pathology (AAA)
Slide 4-

Performing the Study Patient preparation: none Transducer: 3.0MHz or 3.5 MHz 5.0 MHz for thin patient Patient positioning Supine Posterior oblique, lateral decubitus, prone
Slide 5-

Anatomy Kidneys are retroperitoneal, T12 - L4 Right kidney is lower than the left kidney Right kidney is posterio-inferior to liver & gallbladder Left kidney is inferior-medial to the spleen Adrenal glands are superior, anterior, medial to each kidney
Slide 6-

IVC AORTA Celiac axis SMA Renal artery Renal vein Hepatic Veins Right kidney Left kidney Liver Spleen Anatomy
Slide 7-

Renal Scanning Approaches
Slide 8-

Approach to Scanning Right kidney scanning approach: anterior, lateral, posterior Liver is the acoustic window Left kidney: requires a posterior approach, through the spleen Air-filled bowel impedes anterior scanning K K S
Slide 9-

Anatomy 9-12 cm long, 4-5 cm wide, 3-4 cm thick Gerota’s fascia encloses kidney, capsule, perinephric fat Sinus Hilum: vessels, nerves, lymphatics, ureter Pelvis: major and minor calyces Parenchyma surrounds the sinus Cortex: site of urine formation, contains nephrons Medulla: contains pyramids that pass urine to minor calyces. Columns of Bertin separate pyramids
Slide 10-

Renal artery Renal vein Ureter Renal capsule Cortex Medullary pyramids Minor Calyx Kidney Anatomy Medulla Sinus Major Calyx
Slide 11-

Sonographic Appearance Ureters are normally not seen Renal pelvis is black when visible Renal sinus is echogenic due to fat Medullary pyramids are hypoechoic Cortex is mid-gray, less echogenic than liver or spleen. Capsule is smooth and echogenic

Common Pitfalls in Renal Scanning Failure to scan both kidneys Mistaking prominent renal pyramids for hydronephrosis Mistaking prominent pyramids for cysts Confusing normal renal arteries for the ureter
Slide 21-

Common Pitfalls in Renal Scanning Failure to scan through the bladder to search for stone at the uretero-vesicular junction Inability to visualize left kidney due to anterior probe placement Failure to scan the aorta in suspected renal colic
Slide 22-

Normal Variants Dromedary humps: Lateral kidney bulge, same echogenicity as the cortex Hypertrophied column of Bertin: Cortical tissue indents the renal sinus Double collecting system: Sinus divided by a hypertrophied column of Bertin Horseshoe kidney: Kidneys are connected, usually at the lower pole Renal ectopia: One or both kidneys outside the normal renal fossa
Slide 23-

Clinical Indications Obstructive Uropathy
Slide 24-

Nephrolithiasis 12% of the US population Incidence of renal colic is 3% with 50% recurrence within 10 years Manthey DE. Emerg Med Clin North Am.2001; 19(3): 633-54
Slide 25-

Radiographic Modalities Radiography 62% Sensitivity, 67% Specificity Sharma RN, Shah I, Gupta S, et al: Thermogravimetric analysis of urinary stones. Br J Urol 64:564-566, 1989
Slide 26-

Radiographic Modalities IVP vs. US Prospective study, 85 patients Sinclair D, Wilson S, Toi A, et al. Ann Emerg Med 18:556-559, 1989 ULTRASOUND Sensitivity=85% Specificity=92% IVP Sensitivity=90% Specificity=94%
Slide 27-

Radiographic Modalities ED Ultrasound + KUB vs. IVP Prospective study, 108 patients Sensitivity = 97% Specificity = 59% Henderson, S, et al: Acad Emerg Med.1998;5:666-671. Sensitivity = 97% Specificity = 59% PPV = 81% NPV = 92%
Slide 28-

Radiographic Modalities Helical CT- Gold Standard Accurate, fast, no contrast Identifies presence and size of stone Location of stone Level of obstruction Other sources of pain
Slide 29-

Stone on CT Usually visualized Not visualized Stone is extremely small < 1 mm Stone is of relatively low CT attenuation: Indinavir stones Stone excluded from imaging due to respiratory variation
Slide 30-

Helical CT Secondary Findings Sensitivity Ureteral dilatation 90% Perinephric stranding 82% Collecting system dilatation 83% Renal enlargement 71% Specificity Ureral dilatation 93% Perinephric stranding 93% Collecting system dilatation 94% Renal enlargement 89% Smith. AJR Am J Roentgenol 167:1109-1113, 1996
Slide 31-

Location of Stone 378 patients Rate of spontaneous stone passage 22% for proximal ureteral stones 46% for midureteral stones 71% for distal ureteral stones Morse R. J Urol. 1991; 145:263-265
Slide 32-

Width of Stone 520 patients Rate of spontaneous stone passage 100% for stones that were 1 mm or smaller in width 90% for stones 2 to 3 mm 80% for stones that were 4 mm 55% for stones that were 5 mm 35% for stones that were 6 mm 25% for stones that were 7 mm 12% for stones that were 8 mm Ueno A. Urology. 1977; 10:544-546
Slide 33-

Radiographic Modalities Ultrasound Fast Can identify other causes of pain Safe in pregnant patients, children
Slide 34-

Hydronephrosis Dilatation of the urinary tract at any level secondary to intrinsic and or extrinsic obstruction to urine flow
Slide 35-

Hydronephrosis Intrinsic, acquired Renal lithiasis Neoplasm (renal, ureteral, bladder) Papillary necrosis Ureterocele Blood clot Neurogenic bladder Anticholinergics Pregnancy, PID, uterine prolapse) Diuretics Vesico-ureteral reflux Diabetes insipidus Intrinsic, congenital Stenosis (ureteral, urethral, meatal) Adynamic ureter Spinal cord defects Duplication of the ureter Ureterocele
Slide 36-

Hydronephrosis in Renal Colic Smith. AJR Am J Roentgenol. 1996; 167:1109-1113 Sensitivity = 90% Specificity = 93% PPV = 92% NPV = 90% Dalrymple. J Urol. 1997; 159:735-740 Sensitivity = 87% Specificity = 90% PPV = 90% NPV = 89%

Renal Pathology 1. Renal Cysts
Slide 42-

Renal Cysts Arise in the renal cortex, commonly single rather than multiple Cysts do not communicate; hydronephrosis does Shape is round or oval Echo free Sharp interface between the mass and renal tissue Large renal cysts may be mistaken for aortic aneurysms
