Which Condition is Characterized by Hematuria and Pyuria

Question

Which condition is characterized by hematuria and pyuria?
A) Renal failure
B) Diuresis
C) Urinary retention
D) Cystitis

Accepted Answer

Hematuria (blood in the urine) and pyuria (white blood cells in the urine) are both common symptoms of cystitis, which is an inflammation of the bladder often caused by a bacterial infection. Renal failure, diuresis, and urinary retention may also cause changes in urine output, but they are not typically associated with both hematuria and pyuria.
