Benign urologic diseases that cause hematuria

Background: Hematuria is defined by the presence of red blood cells in the urine, usually treated by primary care physicians. Various urologic conditions cause this common finding. While malignancies are often considered in the differential diagnosis, benign urologic conditions also need to be recognized as potential causes of hematuria. A better understanding of these benign conditions can help avoid unnecessary diagnostic procedures and improve patient outcomes.Current Concepts: This review provides an overview of the current concepts regarding benign urologic conditions associated with hematuria. These include urinary tract infections, urolithiasis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, vascular conditions affecting the urinary tract, and hemorrhagic cystitis. Based on the latest literature, we discuss the epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnostic evaluation, and management options for each benign condition.Discussion and Conclusion: Clinical presentation, diagnostic evaluation, and management of each condition are discussed. A comprehensive understanding of these benign urologic conditions is essential for accurately diagnosing and effectively managing hematuria.
