Incidence of nephrolithiasis has increased dramatically over the past 30 years, likely due to environmental changes such as dietary habits. Nephrolithiasis presents as acute flank or abdominal pain with nausea and vomiting. Hematuria is present in 90% of cases, but its absence does not rule out nephrolithiasis.

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 2001
This article covers the diagnosis and management of renal colic. New imaging modalities will be reviewed using evidence-based medicine. The disposition of the patient with renal colic will be addressed. Additionally, special groups with nephrolithiasis will be discussed.

Epidemiology of Nephrolithiasis
Nephron, 1998The main purpose of the study is to acquire useful information on nephrolithiasis in Italy, given the recent increase in its prevalence. The analysis was based on data from sample surveys of the Italian population carried out in 1983 and 1993–1994 as well as on data obtained from medical records of patients treated at the ASTIF in Fiuggi.

Despite anatomic and physiologic changes that predispose to stone formation, nephrolithiasis in pregnancy remains an uncommon occurrence. Stones occur more frequently in multiparas, during the later stages of gestation, and without a difference in laterality. Correct diagnosis can be confusing.

Advances in Kidney Disease and Health
Kidney stone prevalence is rapidly increasing worldwide, and decreasing stone growth and recurrence is critical to reducing morbidity. Preventative approaches vary with kidney stone type, so knowledge of stone composition and a thorough history and metabolic evaluation are necessary to individualize therapy.

Current Diabetes Reports, 2007
Type 2 diabetes is associated with an increased risk of nephrolithiasis, specifically in the form of uric acid (UA) nephrolithiasis. Diabetic patients who produce uric stones exhibit a low urine pH, the key factor of UA crystallization. Production of such acidic urine appears to result from the insulin-resistant state characteristic of diabetes ...

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1988
The management of the patient presenting to the Emergency Department with nephrolithiasis or renal colic should include evaluation of the patient for concurrent diseases, risk factors for stone formation, and possible etiologies for stones. Suspicion of ureterolithiasis is based on a cogent history and physical examination and reinforced by a finding ...

Similar to adults, stone disease in the pediatric patient may present clinically as flank/abdominal pain or hematuria. Unlike in adults, pediatric stone disease is less frequent and is often associated with an underlying metabolic disorder. Because of the 50% likelihood of finding an underlying metabolic cause for stone formation in younger children, a

Metaphylaxis of Nephrolithiasis
Urologia Internationalis, 2007The introduction of extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL), with its noninvasive removal of stones and considerable reduction in the morbidity of stone disease, has revolutionized the therapy of urolithiasis. Unfortunately the propensity for stone recurrence is not altered by removal of stones with ESWL and stone recurrence is still about 50 ...
