    Urinary tract infections and kidney stones are linked. Bacteria and organic matter in urine act as adhesive agents, promoting stone formation and growth in patients with renal infections.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Microbiology
    • Nephrology

    Background:

    • Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are often associated with kidney stone formation.
    • The precise mechanisms linking infection to stone genesis require further elucidation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the relationship between UTIs and the formation of infected renal calculi.
    • To identify the role of bacteria and urinary organic materials in stone development.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of surgically removed infected renal calculi using scanning electron microscopy and bacteriology.
    • Induction of experimental pyelonephritis in rats to study stone formation.
    • Investigation of urinary materials' crystal aggregation and adhesion properties in vitro.

    Main Results:

    • Stone cores comprised calcium phosphate, organic materials, and bacteria.
    • Pyelonephritis severity correlated with renal stone incidence in rats, with necrotic papillae acting as nuclei.
    • Bacteria aggregated urinary crystals and organic matter, promoting adhesion.

    Conclusions:

    • Bacteria and organic matter in urine actively contribute to the initiation and growth of kidney stones.
    • Infected renal calculi formation is significantly influenced by bacterial activity and urinary matrix components.
