Factors affecting calcium oxalate dihydrate fragmented calculi regrowth
BACKGROUND The use of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) to treat calcium oxalate dihydrate (COD) renal calculi gives excellent fragmentation results. However, the retention of post-ESWL fragments within the kidney remains an important health problem. This study examined the effect of various urinary conditions and crystallization inhibitors on the regrowth of spontaneously-passed pos...
متن کاملStudy of the Factors That Affect the Regrowth of Calcium Oxalate Dihydrate Fragmented Calculi
Background: The application of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) to calcium oxalate dihydrate (COD) renal calculi gives excellent fragmentation results. Nevertheless, the retention of postESWL fragments within the kidney is still an important trouble. The aim of this paper is to study the regrowth of COD real spontaneously passed post-ESWL calculi fragments as a function of urinary c...
متن کاملA Case of Randall's Plugs Associated to Calcium Oxalate Dihydrate Calculi
A case of a patient who developed multiple calcium oxalate dihydrate calculi, some of them connected to intratubular calcifications (Randall's plugs), is presented. Randall's plugs were isolated and studied. The mechanism of Randall's plug development is also suggested.
متن کاملFactors affecting the solubility of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystals.
The solubility of triclinic calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) crystals was measured under varying conditions using 45Ca-labeled crystals, expressing solubility as micromoles per liter of 45Ca in solution. In a 0.1-M Tris-HC1 buffer pH 7.4, the solubility of accurately sized CPPD crystals (37-20mum) was 60muM with maximal solubility being attained after about 8 h incubation at 37degreeC. Re...
متن کاملInternalization of Calcium Oxalate Calculi Developed in Narrow Cavities
We describe the case of a patient with calcium oxalate monohydrate and calcium oxalate dihydrate calculi occluded in cavities. All those calculi were located inside narrow cavities covered with a thin epithelium that permits their visualization. Urinary biochemical analysis showed high calciuria, not hypercalciuria, hypocitraturia, and a ratio [calcium]/[citrate] >0.33. The existence of cavitie...
