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 ...

Nephrolithiasis in Pregnancy

American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1987
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.

Metaphylaxis of Nephrolithiasis

Urologia Internationalis, 2007
The 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 ...

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

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 ...

Diabetes and nephrolithiasis

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 ...

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.
