Which of the following statements concerning the ureters is false?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Ureters are retroperitoneal, not intraperitoneal (false), while epithelium, tunics, and peristalsis are true. This corrects ureter position, vital for anatomy, contrasting with true features.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Creatinine 1.0 mmol/L (~11.3 mg/dL) isn't an absolute dialysis indication level alone doesn't mandate it, unlike refractory hyperkalemia (>6.5 mmol/L, cardiac risk), pulmonary edema (fluid overload), or encephalopathy (uremic toxins), all urgent. Creatinine guides chronicity acute thresholds are symptom-driven. Lack of urgency distinguishes creatinine, critical for dialysis criteria (e.g., AEIOU: Acidosis, Electrolytes, Intoxication, Overload, Uremia), unlike life-threatening indications.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Men with UTI need 10-14 days of treatment higher risk of complicated infection (e.g., prostate involvement), requiring longer courses. 3-5 days suit uncomplicated female cystitis insufficient here. 7 days is intermediate under-treats potential complexity. 10-14 days distinguishes it, critical for male UTI clearance, unlike shorter female-focused durations.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Torted appendix testis needs only analgesia self-limiting, resolves with pain control (e.g., NSAIDs), correct. Antibiotics are unnecessary no infection. Surgery isn't mandatory rarely needed. Local anesthetic isn't standard impractical. Analgesia's sufficiency distinguishes it, key to conservative management, unlike infection, surgical, or invasive errors.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Non-contrast CT is the choice for renal hematuria detects stones, masses, trauma (~95% sensitivity), fast/accurate. IVP (contrast) is outdated less sensitive. Angiography targets vessels not broad hematuria. Ureteroscopy is invasive diagnostic, not first-line. CT's versatility distinguishes it, key to hematuria workup, unlike older, specific, or procedural options.
