Calcium oxalate phosphate is extremely rare composition of gall stones, with only one case reported in pediatric population till date. We report a case of pediatric cholelithiasis with a unique composition of calcium oxalate phosphate, detected at eight years of age. Its etiology remains unknown. An
Metabolic products of Aspergillus species may play a significant role in the pulmonary destructive process. We describe a patient who died of respiratory failure, in whom postmortem examination revealed aspergilloma and numerous calcium oxalate crystals around the aspergilloma, as well as extensive
OBJECTIVE
We compared slow vs fast shock wave frequency rates in disintegration of pediatric renal stones less than 20 mm.
METHODS
Our study included 60 children with solitary 10 to 20 mm radiopaque renal stones treated with shock wave lithotripsy. Patients were prospectively randomized into 2
Pergularia daemia (Forsk.) Chiov. (Asclepiadaceae) is used traditionally as an anthelmintic, laxative, antipyretic, and expectorant, and also used to treat malarial intermittent fever. But the scientific parameters are not yet available to identify the true plant material. In the present
Phosphate stones are divided in two groups: I. Infection stones = triple phosphate stones (struvite and carbonate apatite). II. Calcium phosphate stones = Hydroxy apatite. Ad I. For the formation of this stone, infection with urease-producing bacteria is essential. It is important to look for
BACKGROUND
Protease inhibitors, mainly Indinavir, are widely used drugs for the treatment of patients infected by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and are related to renal colic and urinary obstruction. These conditions are the result of urine excretion of these drugs which favours the
OBJECTIVE
To describe an evaluation protocol for pediatric stone formers for risk assessment and management strategies.
METHODS
Between 2002-2006, 2618 children of age three months to 15 years were evaluated for stone disease. Evaluation included demographics, history, anthropometry, diet,
A group of 28 Syrian children (19 males and 9 females; age ranging from 2.5 to 12 years) were diagnosed clinically and radiologically to have upper urinary tract stones. The commonest presentations were renal colic, vomiting, haematuria, pyrexia and vague abdominal pain. Family history of renal
We report a clinical and epidemiological study of 164 cases of complex urinary calculi which were seen in our hospital between 1984 and 1988. The highest incidence was found in patients aged between 40 and 50 years, with a female:male ratio of 1.27/1. In 37% of patients there were first degree
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the safety and feasibility of percutaneous tract dilation by the one-stage method in preschool children.
METHODS
Between April 2009 and February 2013, all preschool (<6 years) children who were candidates for percutaneous nephrolithotomy were enrolled in this prospective study.
OBJECTIVE
In this study we aimed to show the efficacy of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for urinary stone disease in the pediatric age group and to evaluate the complications encountered after the treatment.
METHODS
67 children with 109 stones underwent ESWL, using a Dornier MPL 9000
BACKGROUND
The present study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in elderly patients.
METHODS
We retrospectively reviewed 50 PCNLs performed in the elderly patients (age > 65 years) carried out in our clinic from 2001 through 2007 and compared those with
Primary hyperoxaluria is a rare autosomal recessive disease due to deficiency of an oxalate-metabolizing liver enzyme, which results in nephrolithiasis and renal failure. Concomitant liver and kidney transplant is recommended as isolated kidney transplant is inevitably complicated by recurrence of
Objective: To evaluate the outcomes of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) treatment of calyceal diverticular calculi and identify the associated factors affecting post-operative stone-free rate.
OBJECTIVE
To compare the effectiveness of laser lithotripsy (LL) and pneumatic lithotripters (PL) in calcium oxalate (CaOx) and calcium phosphate (CaP) stones and assess whether these stone compositions affect the outcomes of LL and PL.
METHODS
Comparative, descriptive study.
