Journal ArticleDOI
Guidelines on urolithiasis
TL;DR: Recommendations are given for the management of patients with acute stone colic and for active removal of stones from the ureter and kidney and the principles for risk evaluation of Patients with recurrent stone formation and appropriate recurrence preventive treatment are given.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contemporary management of ureteral stones.
Rajiv K. Singal,John D. Denstedt +1 more
TL;DR: The merits of the various technologies that are available are discussed as they apply to treating calculi in different ureteral segments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Staghorn Calculi: Percutaneous Extraction Versus Anatrophic Nephrolithotomy
TL;DR: Although the frequency of retained stone fragments was higher in the former group, the shorter total procedure time, lesser need for blood transfusions, and far more rapid return to work, strongly favor percutaneous over open stone removal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disintegration of renal and ureteral calculi with ultrasound.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that approximately 60 per cent of all renal calculi requiring intervention can be managed percutaneously instead of by open surgery with virtually no side effects to soft tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Management of residual stones
TL;DR: Although a stone-free state is the desired outcome of surgical intervention of urolithiasis, the authors believe that the presence of noninfection, nonobstructive, asymptomatic postprocedural residual fragments can be managed metabolically in order to prevent stone growth adequately.

Journal ArticleDOI
Organic matrix of human urinary concretions
TL;DR: The occurrence of “matrix calculi” and recrystallization of decrystallized cystine stone matrices suggest that matrix precedes crystal deposition in at least some human concretions, and mineralization in terms of inorganic ion accretion by matrix is a distinct possibility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surgical, bacteriological, and biochemical management of "infection stones".
Norman J. Nemoy,Thomas A. Stamey +1 more
TL;DR: Surgical removal is followed by renal irrigation with a multivalent, buffered organic acid solution while a bacteriologically sterile urine is maintained, and in 14 consecutive cases followed for an average of 34 months, stones have not recurred.

Studies on the treatment of cystinuria1
C. E. Dent,B. Senior +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that stones probably form as a result of precipitation from the concentrated night urine and by promoting a high fluid intake at regular intervals one may be able to ensure the passage of a urine that is constantly undersaturated with cystine.
