HPO HP:0000001 All Root of all terms in the Human Phenotype Ontology.
HPO HP:0000002 Abnormality of body height "Deviation from the norm of height with respect to that which is expected according to age and gender norms." [HPO:probinson] HP:0001507
HPO HP:0000003 Multicystic kidney dysplasia "Multicystic dysplasia of the kidney is characterized by multiple cysts of varying size in the kidney and the absence of a normal pelvicaliceal system. The condition is associated with ureteral or ureteropelvic atresia, and the affected kidney is nonfunctional." [HPO:curators] Multicystic kidney dysplasia is the result of abnormal fetal renal development in which the affected kidney is replaced by multiple cysts and has little or no residual function. The vast majority of multicystic kidneys are unilateral. Multicystic kidney can be diagnosed on prenatal ultrasound. HP:0000107
HPO HP:0000005 Mode of inheritance "The pattern in which a particular genetic trait or disorder is passed from one generation to the next." [HPO:probinson] HP:0000001
HPO HP:0000006 Autosomal dominant inheritance "A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in heterozygotes. In the context of medical genetics, an autosomal dominant disorder is caused when a single copy of the mutant allele is present. Males and females are affected equally, and can both transmit the disorder with a risk of 50% for each child of inheriting the mutant allele." [HPO:curators] HP:0000005
HPO HP:0000007 Autosomal recessive inheritance "A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in individuals with two pathogenic alleles, either homozygotes (two copies of the same mutant allele) or compound heterozygotes (whereby each copy of a gene has a distinct mutant allele)." [HPO:probinson] HP:0000005
HPO HP:0000008 Abnormal morphology of female internal genitalia "An abnormality of the female internal genitalia." [HPO:probinson] HP:0000812, HP:0010460
HPO HP:0000009 Functional abnormality of the bladder "Dysfunction of the urinary bladder." [HPO:probinson] HP:0000014
HPO HP:0000010 Recurrent urinary tract infections "Repeated infections of the urinary tract." [HPO:probinson] The urinary tract comprises the kidneys, ureters, a bladder, and a urethra. HP:0002719, HP:0011277
HPO HP:0000011 Neurogenic bladder "A type of bladder dysfunction caused by neurologic damage. Neurogenic bladder can be flaccid or spastic. Common manifestatios of neurogenic bladder are overflow incontinence, frequency, urgency, urge incontinence, and retention." [HPO:probinson, PMID:18095004, PMID:22400020] Neurogenic bladder sphincter dysfunction (NBSD) can develop as a result of a lesion at any level in the nervous system, including the cerebral cortex, spinal cord, or peripheral nervous system. Neurologic conditions in children leading to neurogenic bladder dysfunction are predominantly congenital neural tube defects (including myelomeningocele, lipomeningocele, sacral agenesis, and occult lesions causing tethered cord). Acquired causes such as spinal cord tumors or trauma or sequelae of transverse myelitis are less frequent. Whereas from an etiologic standpoint neurogenic bladder dysfunction is a heterogeneous group, medical management will be similar irrespective of the underlying cause. HP:0000009
HPO HP:0000012 Urinary urgency "Urge incontinence is the strong, sudden need to urinate." [HPO:probinson, PMID:12559262] Urinary urgency is the strong, sudden need to urinate and is usually due to bladder spasms or contractions. This symptom is suggestive of, but not necessarily conclusive for urodynamically demonstrable detrusor hyperactivity. HP:0000009
HPO HP:0000013 Hypoplasia of the uterus "Underdevelopment of the uterus." [HPO:probinson] HP:0008684
HPO HP:0000014 Abnormality of the bladder "An abnormality of the urinary bladder." [HPO:probinson] HP:0010936
HPO HP:0000015 Bladder diverticulum "Diverticulum (sac or pouch) in the wall of the urinary bladder." [HPO:probinson] HP:0025487
HPO HP:0000016 Urinary retention "Inability to completely empty the urinary bladder during the process of urination." [HPO:probinson] Urinary retention is the inability of the urinary bladder to empty. The cause may be neurologic or nonneurologic. HP:0000009
HPO HP:0000017 Nocturia "Abnormally increased production of urine during the night leading to an unusually frequent need to urinate." [HPO:sdoelken] Often occuring as a result of heart insufficiency. HP:0000009
HPO HP:0000019 Urinary hesitancy "Difficulty in beginning the process of urination." [HPO:probinson] HP:0000009
HPO HP:0000020 Urinary incontinence "Loss of the ability to control the urinary bladder leading to involuntary urination." [HPO:sdoelken, PMID:12559262] Urinary incontinence can be defined as the complaint of any involuntary leakage of urine. HP:0000009, HP:0031064
HPO HP:0000021 Megacystis "Dilatation of the bladder postnatally." [HPO:probinson] HP:0010955
HPO HP:0000022 Abnormality of male internal genitalia "An abnormality of the male internal genitalia." [HPO:probinson] The internal genital structures of the male including the testis, epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vesicle, ejaculatory duct, bulbourethral gland, and the prostate. HP:0000812, HP:0010461
