Physical examination of the patient with MH should be focused on isolating the underlying cause. The physical examination findings will vary depending on the etiology, as follows:

Genitourinary system

  • Flank tenderness;
  • Masses in the flank, abdomen, suprapubic area, or urethra
  • Enlarged, nodular, tender, or fluctuant prostate.

Coagulopathy

Infection

Renal disease

Urethral stricture or benign prostatic hyperplasia

  • Urine flow rate and postvoid residual measurement may be helpful as well.[1]
