• A. Active renal failure
• B. Anuria and haematuria
• C. Motor aphasia
• D. Chronic renal failure (CRF)

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Anuria and haematuria

An X-ray of lower abdomen shows shades in the region of the ureter suspected to be a ureteric calculus. As the formation of calculus (renal stones) blocks ureter it leads to anuria (no passage of urine) and as the stones grow larger they cause irritation of wall of ureter which leads to blood in urine i.e haematuria. Hence a possible clinical symptom would be Anuria and haematuria.

So, the correct answer is 'Anuria and haematuria'.
