[Result of treatment of urinary lithiasis for professional aptitude]

Military people are inapt for presence of urinary stones. In this specific population, the treatment of stones is even more aggressive than for the general population without recommendation.

The purpose of this study was to estimate the results of treatments by ureteroscopy in this population. Success was defined by the complete absence of fragment visualized in the imaging of control operating comment and so the end of the inaptitude time.

Between 2009 and 2016, forty-two were treated for ureteral or renal calculi. The population comprises of 93% men, 35 years old on average. The stones were mainly multiple (more 2) and the medium size is 5mm; sixteen (42.9%) was at the left and eight (19%) was bilateral. In 78.8% (78) of the cases there was a stone in renal position whose 50% (39) still at the lower calyx. In total, 5% of the patients were stone-free in 2 sessions on average. The average deadline of inaptitude of the initial consultation in the resumption of work was of 6 months. In 4% of the cases there was a complication operating rank 4.
