How Lupus erythematosus affects your urogenital health! | UroChannel

Lupus erythematosus has a profound impact upon the urinary system and kidneys. In this video on UroChannel, urologist and sexologist from Göttingen, Dr. med. Dr. phil. Stefan Buntrock explores the impact of Lupus erythematosus, an autoimmune disease. Lupus erythematosus, meaning "wolf" in Latin, affects multiple organs, including the kidneys and urinary tract. The urological complications associated with lupus can range from urinary tract infections to bladder inflammation, blood in the urine, and urinary incontinence. Lupus nephritis, a chronic inflammation of the kidneys, is a severe manifestation of the disease and can lead to kidney failure if left untreated. Early detection and treatment are crucial to prevent irreversible damage. Diagnostic methods may involve urine analysis, blood tests, imaging studies, and kidney biopsies. Treatment approaches for lupus-related urological complications include medications like immunosuppressants and corticosteroids, as well as lifestyle modifications. Collaborative efforts between urologists and rheumatologists are necessary to develop comprehensive treatment plans tailored to each patient's needs. The video emphasizes the importance of close monitoring, regular follow-ups, and ongoing communication between specialists for optimizing patient outcomes. Living with lupus and its urological complications can be challenging, but lifestyle modifications, support from loved ones, and patient support groups can help improve the quality of life for individuals affected by this disease.
