List Diseases – U
Uvulitis is an acute inflammation of the uvula with a sudden onset, pain when swallowing, a sensation of a floating foreign body in the pharynx, and difficulty breathing. Sometimes uvulitis occurs at night, with the patient waking up from the sensation of a foreign body in the pharynx; attempts to eliminate it by sharp expectoration exhalation increase the pain and swelling of the soft palate.
Uveitis is an inflammation of the uveal tract. The inflammatory process can be localized in certain parts of the uveal tract, in connection with which it is advisable to subdivide the uveal process by its localization.
A group of connective tissue diseases cause inflammation of the uveal tract, resulting in uveitis.
Uveitis is an inflammatory disease of the vascular membrane - the most common pathology of this area of the eye. Uveitis occurs in 57-30% of cases and is one of the main causes of low vision and blindness (25-30%).
It is not often that women come forward with these symptoms, because “it’s good to have periods”, but you should not treat this issue in this way.
Among the causes of intra-abdominal bleeding, a certain place is occupied by perforation of the uterus during medical manipulations in its cavity. Most often, this occurs during artificial abortion and during removal of the remains of the fertilized egg in women with spontaneous or criminal miscarriage.
Uterine myoma is a benign, hormone-dependent tumor that develops from the muscular layer of the uterus. Uterine myoma is one of the most common tumors of the female genital organs. It is detected in 10-27% of gynecological patients, and during preventive examinations, uterine myoma is first detected in 1-5% of those examined.
Fibrous tumors of the uterus are benign tumors of smooth muscle origin. Fibrous tumors are often the cause of pathological uterine bleeding (menorrhagia, menometrorrhagia), pelvic pain, dysuric disorders, bowel dysfunction and lead to pregnancy complications.
Inversion of the uterus is a rare, severe condition in which the body of the uterus turns inside out and protrudes out of the vagina beyond the genital slit. Inversion usually occurs when too much tension is applied to the umbilical cord in an attempt to deliver the placenta.
A uterine cyst is a benign formation caused by a chronic inflammatory process that blocks the excretory function of the ducts of the glandular tissue of the uterus and the accumulation of mucus in the glands. The cause is inflammation of the cervix - cervicitis or endocervicitis.
Uterine cancer, the symptoms of which can be variable, but fall into three main groups - discharge, pain and bleeding - is an oncological pathology that ranks second in prevalence after breast cancer.
Uterine body cancer is predominantly found in postmenopause. In patients with bleeding during this period of life, it is detected in 10% of cases. Diagnostic errors in women at this age are due to incorrect assessment of bloody discharge, which is often explained by climacteric dysfunction.
Adnexal torsion includes torsion of the ovary and sometimes the fallopian tube, which can lead to disruption of the arterial blood supply and the development of ischemia.
Since the 1970s, omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 PUFAs) have attracted the attention of cardiologists following the publication of significant epidemiological studies that showed a lower incidence of cardiovascular disease.
Endometrial cancer (EC) is the leading nosological form among oncogynecological diseases, and two thirds of patients belong to the first pathogenetic variant and have precancerous changes preceding this process - atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AGE).
Urticaria (angioedema Quincke) is an allergic disease of the skin and mucous membranes, characterized by the formation of blisters, accompanied by itching and burning. A distinction is made between acute, including acute limited Quincke's edema, and chronic urticaria.
"Urolithiasis" ("renal stone disease", "urolithiasis" and "nephrolithiasis") are terms that define the clinical syndrome of the formation and movement of stones in the urinary system.
Urolithiasis, or urolithiasis, is a disease associated with metabolic disorders in the body, in which stones form in the kidneys and urinary tract.
Urogenital disorders in the climacteric period are a symptom complex of secondary complications associated with the development of atrophic and dystrophic processes in estrogen-dependent tissues and structures of the lower third of the genitourinary tract: the bladder, urethra, vagina, ligamentous apparatus of the small pelvis and muscles of the pelvic floor.
Urinary tract infections are microbial inflammatory diseases of the urinary system organs without specifying a specific location. The term "urinary tract infection" is used until the localization of the inflammatory process and the etiology of the inflammation are specified. The term is valid at the first stage of the disease, when there is no data on kidney damage during examination of the patient, but there are signs of microbial damage to the urinary tract.
