Orthostatic proteinuria (synonyms: orthostatic albuminuria, postural proteinuria)  is a benign condition. A change in renal hemodynamics, which in some otherwise normal individuals, causes protein (mostly albumin) to appear in urine when they are in the standing position. Urine formed when these individuals are lying down is protein-free.There is normal urinary protein excretion during the night but increased excretion during the day, associated with activity and upright posture. Total urinary protein excretion may be increased but levels above 1 g per 24 hours are more likely to be associated with underlying renal disease. The exact cause for orthostatic proteinuria is not known. == References ==
Extravasation of urine refers to the condition where an interruption of the urethra leads to a collection of urine in other cavities, such as the scrotum or the penis in males. It can be associated with a calculus. Mechanism
An injury to the urethra leaving Bucks fascia intact results in a collection of urine (extravasation) limited to the penis, deep to Bucks fascia. However, if the injury to the bulb of the penis results in urethral injury accompanying a tear of the Bucks fascia, then extravasated blood and urine would accumulate in the superficial perineal space, passing into the penis (outer to Bucks fascia) as well as the scrotum and lower anterior abdominal wall. Extravasation of urine involving a compromised Bucks fascia can be appreciated clinically by blood collecting in the superficial pouch, resulting in a butterfly-shaped region around the penis. Urinoma
Long term complications of renal trauma, ureteral obstruction, or kidney transplant can lead to the formation of an urinoma encapsulating extravasated urine. References
