Triamterene Nephrolithiasis

Military Medicine, 1989
A 59-year-old white male presented with a triamterene renal stone and pyelonephritis, requiring percutaneous lithotomy. A combination of hydrochlorothiazide and triamterene had been previously prescribed despite no history of hypokalemia. The indications for potassium replacement therapy and risks of triamterene nephrolithiasis are reviewed.

Claudins and nephrolithiasis

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 2018
The greatest risk factor for kidney stone formation is increased urinary calcium excretion. Most filtered calcium is reabsorbed from the proximal tubule and the thick ascending limb (TAL) of Henle's loop via a paracellular pathway. Claudins are tight junction proteins that confer the permeability properties of an epithelium.

Prevention of nephrolithiasis

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 2001
The high incidence of recurrence after an initial stone event underscores the need for an effective medical prophylactic program. Dietary modification and drug therapies have long been advocated to reduce the likelihood of stone recurrence. While the efficacy of a high fluid intake has been validated in a randomized trial, the benefit of other dietary ...

Pediatric Nephrolithiasis

Journal of Urology, 1975
The management of 78 children with upper urinary calculi is described. Boys outnumbered girls by a ratio of 2 to 1. Two-thirds of the patients had identifiable metabolic causes, while the remaining third had infected renal lithiasis. In this latter group, all patients had had multiple urologic procedures, urinary infection, and stasis with diversionary

Cystine Nephrolithiasis

Urology, 2013
Cystinuria is a rare etiology of nephroliathiasis but must be considered in the pediatric population and in those patients with recurrent nephrolithiasis. We describe a patient with an unusually large cystine stone burden and our successful multimodality therapy.

Nephrolithiasis in children

Pediatric Nephrology, 2005
A metabolic etiology is the most common cause for pediatric kidney stones. Appropriate evaluation of affected children should include assessment of stone type, if available, and assessment of predisposing factors in all cases. This review discusses the metabolic disorders that lead to nephrolithiasis with respect to the development of calcium, uric ...

Hyperglycinuria with nephrolithiasis

European Journal of Pediatrics, 1978
The case of a seven and a half-year-old girl with hyperglycinuria, oxalate nephrolithiasis, and a normal plasma amino acid pattern is presented. Hyperglycinuria amounted to 400 mg of glycine in 24 h urine and the stone was composed of calcium oxalate dihydrate. The metabolic relationship between glycine and oxalate is discussed. It is possible that the
