As part of the pre-operative assessment for prostatectomy, the routine intravenous urogram continues to be requested by many practitioners. One hundred and ten patients being considered for prostatectomy underwent, prospectively, intravenous urography and trans-abdominal ultrasound. This paper specifically examines the respective contribution to management of these investigations. In 34% of patients, management was influenced in some way. This could have been achieved by ultrasound and plain abdominal radiograph alone. Additional intravenous urography would not have affected the clinical management of any patient.
作为前列腺切除术术前评估的一部分,许多从业者仍会要求进行常规静脉肾盂造影。110例拟行前列腺切除术的患者前瞻性地接受了静脉肾盂造影和经腹超声检查。本文专门研究了这些检查对治疗的各自贡献。在34%的患者中,治疗在某种程度上受到了影响。这仅通过超声和腹部平片就可以实现。额外的静脉肾盂造影不会影响任何患者的临床治疗。
