Bladder lithiasis remains prevalent in our region, frequently presenting with dysuria, pain, and hematuria. Struvite stones are predominant, and open surgery is the primary treatment, though less invasive options are recommended.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Nephrology
  • Biochemistry

Context:

  • Bladder lithiasis (bladder stones) presents unique challenges in certain regions.
  • A retrospective study analyzed 94 cases over 13 years to understand local characteristics.

Purpose:

  • To investigate the specific features of bladder lithiasis in the studied region.
  • To analyze lithogenic factors, clinical presentation, diagnostic methods, and treatment outcomes.

Summary:

  • The study included 94 patients (62 male, 32 female) with a mean age of 24.2 years.
  • Common symptoms included dysuria, micturition pain, and hematuria. Struvite stones predominated, with 27% having predisposing factors.
  • Intravenous urography was the main diagnostic tool. Open surgery was the predominant treatment (96%), with 42% experiencing urinary tract infections.

Impact:

  • Highlights the continued prevalence of bladder lithiasis and the reliance on open surgery.
  • Suggests the need for adopting endoscopic and extracorporeal treatments to minimize open surgical interventions.
