Urinary Tract Calculi III: Medical Management

Urinary Tract Calculi III: Medical Management

The diagnosis of renal calculi involves several imaging techniques, including non-contrast CT scans and ultrasound. These methods help visualize kidney stones, assess their size and location, and detect possible obstructions. Additionally, Measuring urine pH is useful for diagnosing specific stone types, such as struvite (alkaline pH) and uric acid stones (acidic pH). Cystine stones are primarily linked to cystinuria, a genetic condition. A urinalysis helps detect blood in the urine (hematuria)...

Urinary Tract Calculi VI: Surgical Management

Procedures for Kidney StonesMedical intervention is necessary when kidney stones or renal calculi are too large to pass spontaneously (typically greater than 5 millimeters) when stones are accompanied by symptomatic infection (such as fever or pyelonephritis), when they impair kidney function, or when they cause persistent symptoms like severe pain, nausea, or urinary retention. Additionally, patients with only one kidney or those who cannot be treated with medical management also require...

Summary

Root canal treatment can fail due to calcified canals. Nonsurgical retreatment using cold ceramic (CC) obturation achieved successful healing in a calcified mandibular molar, preserving the tooth.

Area of Science:

Endodontics
Dental Materials Science

Background:

Root canal treatment (RCT) success relies on thorough chemo-mechanical preparation and obturation.
Calcified root canals pose challenges, increasing risks of incomplete debridement and treatment failure.

Keywords:

calcification chemo-mechanical preparation cold ceramic nonsurgical retreatment periapical lesion
