Color doppler ultrasonography: Its role in detection and treatment outcome in infravesical obstruction
Abstract/OtherAbstract :
Bladder weight and detrusor blood perfusion increases significantly with infravesical obstruction (IVO) and re-lease of obstruction results in reduction of bladder weight and detrusor blood flow. 38 patients with IVO were sub-jected to color Doppler ultrasonography (CD U) to detect the blood flow in the hypertrophied detrusor muscle. Blood flow was detected in 84.5% (Fisher exact probability < 0.001). After surgical relief of obstruction, blood flow remained positive in 21.05% patients at 3 months and 13.10% patients at 6 months, which was because of per-sistence of IVO. Color Doppler ultrasonography (CDU) is a simple and non-invasive tool which can help in diag-nosis and follow-up of infravesical obstruction.
