Abstract

Aim: Although evaluating bladder dysfunction in children with ultrasonography is feasible, ef­fects of sex differences on the bladder wall measurements and diagnosis are still unknown. This study aimed to measure bladder dysfunction parameters in children by ultrasonography and determine the possible effects of sex on the diagnostic performance. Materials and Methods: The study included 64 children diagnosed with bladder dysfunction (female/male: 46/18; age: 7.8±2.5, 4–16 years) and 11 healthy children (female/male: 7/4; age: 9.9±4.4, 4–17 years). The anterior, posterior and both lateral walls of the bladder were measured using US before and after urinating. The full-to-empty ratios (FER) of wall thickness were cal­culated. Statistical data analysis and receiver operating characteristic analysis were performed, and the measurements were evaluated for sex-based differences. Results: Intergroup data analysis showed that the FER was consistently different between the patients and healthy children, but not between the two sexes. The FER cut-off thresholds (with sensitivity and specificity values) for anterior, posterior, right lateral, and left lateral detrusor were 0.321 (75%, 73%), 0.401 (70%, 63%), 0.328 (73%, 65%), and 0.321 (75%, 65%) mm, respec­tively. The detrusor thicknesses varied between females and males within each group irrespec­tive of whether the bladder was full or empty. The same was also true for the FER. Discussion and Conclusion: Ultrasound-based FER measurement of bladder wall thickness is significantly useful in the diagnosis of bladder dysfunction, irrespective of sex.

Özet

Amaç: Çocuklarda mesane disfonksiyonunu ultrasonografi ile değerlendirmek mümkün olmak­la birlikte, cinsiyet farkının mesane duvarı ölçümleri ve tanı üzerindeki etkileri halen bilinmemek­tedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, çocuklarda mesane disfonksiyonu parametrelerini ultrasonografiyle ölçmek ve cinsiyetin tanı performansına olası etkilerini belirlemektir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya mesane disfonksiyonu tanılı 64 çocuk (kız/erkek: 46/18; yaş: 7,8±2,5, 4–16 yıl) ve sağlıklı 11 (kız/erkek: 4/7; yaş: 9,9±4,4, 5–17 yıl) çocuk dahil edildi. Anteriyor, posteriyor ve her iki lateral mesane detrusor duvarı işeme öncesi ve sonrası ölçüldü. Mesane boş ve dolu iken alınan detrusor duvar kalınlık ölçüm oranları hesaplandı. Veriler istatistiksel olarak analiz edildi; alıcı işlem karakteristik analizi yapıldı ve ölçümlerdeki cinsiyete dayalı fark­lılıklar değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Gruplar arası verilerin analizinde dolu/boş mesane detrusor duvar kalınlık oranlarında sağlıklı ve hasta grup arasında anlamlı farklılıklar saptanırken, cinsiyet ile ilişki izlenmedi. Dolu/ boş mesane detrusor kalınlığı için eşik değerleri (sensitivite ve spesifite ile birlikte) anteriyor, posteriyor, sağ lateral ve sol lateral detrusor için sırasıyla 0,321 (%75, %63), 0,401(%70, %63), 0,328 (%73, %65), 0,321 (%75, %65) mm olarak bulundu. Detrusor kalınlığı mesanenin dolu ya da boş olmasından bağımsız, her grup içinde kız ve erkek cinsiyet arasında değişkenlik gösterdi. Aynı durum dolu/boş mesane detrusor kalınlık oranları için de geçerliydi. Tartışma ve Sonuç: Ultrasonografi ile saptanan dolu/boş mesane detrusor kalınlık oranları, me­sane disfonksiyonu tanısına cinsiyetten bağımsız olarak katkı sağlamaktadır.
