Abstract:
Haematospermia is the medical term used to describe the presence of blood in semen. It can occur due to a variety of reasons and can be a benign or serious condition. The present study aimed to identify the prevalence and characterization of haematospermia in patients visiting hospital clinics. To do so, a total of 44 patients were recruited and characterized regarding their demographic variation, symptoms, severity, associated diseases, and measured prostate-specific-antigen (PSA). Results confirmed that patients were middle-aged (around 40 years) and the duration (days) of haematospermia is around 16±12. Only a few of these patients have shown an association with chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes or other vascular diseases. Less than 50% of these patients have shown past-surgical history and few of them were using anticoagulants 16±12. The majority of patients had painless haematospermia while only (13.6%) had painful haematospermia, irritative urinary symptoms were found in (13.6%) while obstructive urinary symptoms in (4.5%). Ultrasound (US) examination of the abdomen, pelvis, and scrotum was normal in more than 50% of them while others have shown prostatic involvement. Few of these patients experienced pus on laboratory examination. To sum up, haematospermia is represented as an inconvenient disease in our sample leading to interference with daily quality of life, with no clear understanding aetiology of the disease and its progression.
摘要:
血精症是用于描述精液中血液存在的医学术语。它可能由于各种原因而发生,并且可能是良性或严重的状况。本研究旨在确定在医院诊所就诊的患者中血精症的患病率和特征。要做到这一点,共招募了44名患者,并对其人口统计学差异进行了表征,症状,严重程度,相关疾病,并测量前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)。结果证实,患者为中年(约40岁),血精症的持续时间(天)约为16±12。这些患者中只有少数显示出与慢性疾病如高血压和糖尿病或其他血管疾病有关。这些患者中有不到50%的患者有手术史,其中很少有人使用抗凝剂16±12。大多数患者患有无痛性精子症,而仅(13.6%)患有疼痛性精子症,在(13.6%)中发现了刺激性的泌尿症状,而在(4.5%)中发现了阻塞性的泌尿症状。腹部超声(美国)检查,骨盆,其中50%以上的阴囊正常,而其他人则表现出前列腺受累。这些患者中很少有在实验室检查中出现脓液。总而言之,在我们的样本中,血精症被认为是一种不方便的疾病,会干扰日常生活质量,对该病的病因及其进展没有明确的了解。
