Renal papillary calcification and the development of calcium oxalate monohydrate papillary renal calculi
Background: The objective of this study is to determine in a case series (four patients) how calcified deposits in renal papillae are associated with the development of calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) papillary calculi. Methods: From the recently collected papillary calculi, we evaluated retrospectively patients, subjected to retrograde ureteroscopy, with COM papillary lithiasis. Results: The...

متن کاملFine structure of calcium oxalate monohydrate renal calculi.
Fine structure, location and size of the core of 12 calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) papillar calculi from different 'idiopathic' stone-formers were studied by an optical and scanning electron microscope equipped with the EDAX analytical device. Each individual core exhibited a unique overall structure composed of loosely arranged twined and intergrown crystals of plate-like and/or columnar sh...
متن کاملFactors 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 کاملRenal lithiasis and nutrition
Renal lithiasis is a multifactorial disease. An important number of etiologic factors can be adequately modified through diet, since it must be considered that the urine composition is directly related to diet. In fact, the change of inappropriate habitual diet patterns should be the main measure to prevent kidney stones. In this paper, the relation between different dietary factors (liquid int...
