Hi My father had a TURP two months ago, he also had TURP 12 Yrs ago. Now after two months of the surgery he is facing problem in urinating i.e. the urine does not flow out in one go, two-three times the flow is hampered. Today Had an ultrasound which says "Liver is normal in size and homogeneous bright parebchymal echotexture." Please help in understanding this terminology and what could be the reason of abovementioned symptos .
HelloHomogeneous bright parenchymal echo texture may indicate fatty changes in liver. Fatty liver is due to deposition of fat within liver cells. Fat appears bright in sonography. Fatty liver is a reversible condition.It is usually reverses with treatment of underlying cause. Fatty changes in liver may be due to many causes like obesity, sedentary life, hepatitis,altered lipid profile, metabolic disorder etc. Your father may need few investigations like routine hologram, random blood sugar, lipid profile, liver and renal function test, Urine RE/ME. He should avoid fatty and fried food. Avoid saturated fat and take the lot of fibers in diet. Urinary symptoms may be due to many causes like infection etc. He needs proper evaluation by a urologist.
