About This Presentation

Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "UROLITHIASIS” by Dr. Farhanul Huda.

This medical PowerPoint presentation is about urolithiasis, the formation of stones, also known as calculi, in the urinary tract. These stones can form in various parts of the urinary tract, including the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra.

Urolithiasis is a common condition that affects both men and women, and its prevalence is increasing globally. The formation of stones can be due to various factors, including dehydration, high levels of certain minerals in the urine, and certain medical conditions such as hyperparathyroidism and inflammatory bowel disease.

Symptoms of urolithiasis may include pain in the back or side, painful urination, and blood in the urine. Treatment options for urolithiasis depend on the size and location of the stones, and may include medications to manage pain and promote stone passage, shock wave lithotripsy to break up larger stones, and surgical removal of stones in some cases.

Prevention strategies for urolithiasis may include staying well-hydrated, following a balanced diet, and managing underlying medical conditions that increase the risk of stone formation.

Slide 1-

UROLITHIASIS Dr. Farhanul Huda Associate Professor Dept of Surgery AIIMS Rishikesh
Slide 2-

A disease described in antiquity by many observers. Mentioned in Oath of Hippocrates. Over last 150 years, pattern of stone disease has changed . Lower tract urate calculi still a problem in the third world.
Slide 3-

Urolithiasis denotes stones originating anywhere in the urinary tract, including the kidneys and bladder. NEPHROLITHIASIS. URETEROLITHIASIS. CYSTOLITHIASIS.
Slide 4-

ETIOLOGY Dietetic Deficiency of vitamin A causes desquamation of epithelium. The cells form a nidus on which a stone is deposited. Altered urinary solutes and colloids Dehydration increases the concentration of urinary solutes Reduction of urinary colloids, which adsorb solutes, or mucoproteins, which chelate calcium, might also result in a tendency for crystal and stone formation.
Slide 5-

Decreased urinary citrate The presence of citrate in urine, 300–900 mg 24 h–1 as citric acid, tends to keep otherwise relatively insoluble calcium phosphate and citrate in solution. Renal infection with urea-splitting streptococci, staphylococci and especiallyProteus spp.
Slide 6-

Inadequate urinary drainage and urinary stasis Stones are liable to form when urine does not pass freely. Prolonged immobilisation Immobilisation from any cause results in skeletal decalcification and an increase in urinary calcium.
Slide 7-

HYPRECALCIURIA Idiopathic hypercalciuria, Primary hyperparathyroidism, Renal tubular acidosis, sarcoidosis and vitamin D intoxication. HYPREOXALURIA Primary hyperoxaluria ,Enteric hyperoxaluria, Toxic hyperoxaluria HYPERURICOSURIA Urinary Acidification and Alkalinization
Slide 8-

Infection with urea splitting organisms. The urea is split to ammonia, which is hydrolyzed to ammonium hydroxide, raising urine pH to 8 to 9, struvite precipitates. Struvite stone disease has been called "stone cancer" The stones tend to be very large (staghorn), and frequently result in renal damage, but patients may be relatively symptom free until the stone occupies entire collecting system.
Slide 9-

Cystinuria An inborn error of metabolism characterized by increased urinary excretion ofcystine,ornithine, lysine, arginine (COLA), due to a defect in renal tubular reabsorption of these amino acids. Cystine is insoluble and precipitates in concentrated urine. The stones are large ,radiolucent and recurrent.
Slide 10-

Some drugs (triamterene, some of the older sulphas) can be metabolized to insoluble compounds which can precipitate in urine. The carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, acetazolamide, causes a combined Type 1 and Type 2 RTA which may result in nephrolithiasis.

Types of renal calculus Oxalate calculus (calcium oxalate) Irregular in shape. Covered with sharp projections, which cause bleeding. The surface of the calculus is discoloured by altered blood. Is hard and radiodense.
Slide 13-

Phosphate calculus It is smooth and dirty white. Tends to grow in alkaline urine, especially when urea-splitting organisms are present. It may enlarge to fill most of the collecting system, forming a staghorn calculus. Even a very large staghorn calculus may be clinically silent for years. Presents with haematuria, urinary infection or renal failure. Easy to see on radiographic films.
Slide 14-

Uric acid and urate calculi These are hard, smooth and multiple. They vary from yellow to reddish brown, multifaceted. Are radiolucent and appear on IVP as a filling defect, which can be mistaken for a tumour. The presence of uric acid stones is confirmed by CT.
Slide 15-

Cystine calculus Associated with a congenital error of metabolism that leads to cystinuria. Hexagonal, translucent, white crystals of cystine appear only in acid urine. They are multiple and may grow to form a cast of the collecting system. Pink or yellow when first removed, they change to a greenish colour when exposed to air. Cystine stones are radioopaque because they contain sulphur, and they are very hard.
Slide 16-

Xanthine calculus Extremely rare. Smooth and round, brick-red in colour, and show lamellation on cross-section.
Slide 17-

Clinical features Silent calculus UTI Uraemia may be the first indication calculi.
Slide 18-

Pain MC symptom in 75% of people. Fixed renal pain is located posteriorly in the renal angle anteriorly in the hypochondrium, or in both. It may be worse on movement, particularly on climbing stairs.
Slide 19-

Ureteric colic is an agonising pain passing from the loin to the groin. Typically, it starts suddenly causing the patient to writhe to find comfort. Pain resulting from renal stones rarely lasts more than 8 hours in the absence of infection. There is no pyrexia. The severity of the colic is not related to the size of the stone .
Slide 20-

Haematuria Sometimes a leading symptom of stone disease. As a rule, the amount of bleeding is small. Pyuria Infection is dangerous when the kidney is obstructed. As pressure builds in the dilated collecting system, organisms are injected into the circulation and a life-threatening septicaemia can quickly develop. The mechanical effect of stones irritating the urothelium may cause pyuria even in the absence of infection.
Slide 21-

Investigation
Slide 22-

Radiography The ‘KUB’ film shows the kidney, ureters and bladder. An opacity that maintains its position relative to the urinary tract during respiration is likely to be a calculus. Opacities that may be confused with renal calculus ■ Calcified mesenteric lymph node ■ Gallstones or concretion in the appendix ■ Tablets or foreign bodies in the alimentary canal ■ Phleboliths ■ Ossified tip of the 12th rib ■ Calcified tuberculous lesion in the kidney ■ Calcified adrenal gland

Excretion urography Also called IVP, is a radiological procedure used to visualize abnormalities of the urinary system, including the kidneys, ureters, and bladder.
Slide 25-

Procedure-IVP An injection of x-ray contrast medium is given I/V. The contrast is excreted via the kidneys, and the contrast media becomes visible on x-rays almost immediately after injection. X-rays are taken at specific time intervals to capture the contrast as it travels through the different parts of the urinary system. This gives a comprehensive view of the patient's anatomy and some information on the functioning of the renal system.

Slide 28-

An IVP can be performed in either emergency or routine circumstances. Emergency IVP For patients who present to the A&E, with severe renal colic and a positive hematuria test. Patients with a positive find for kidney stones but with no obstruction are usually discharged with a follow-up appointment with a urologist. Patients with a kidney stone and obstruction are usually required to stay in hospital for monitoring or further treatment.
Slide 29-

Contraindications-IVP Metformin should be to stoped 48 hours pre and post procedure. ARF/CRF. Known allergy to contrast medium.
Slide 30-

Contrast-enhanced computerised tomography CT has become the mainstay of investigation for acute ureteric colic. Ultrasound scanning Ultrasound scanning is of most value in locating stones for treatment by extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL).

Ureteric calculus
Slide 32-

URETERIC CALCULUS A stone in the ureter usually comes from the kidney. Most are single small stones that are passed spontaneously. Clinical features Ureteric colic Intermittent attacks of colic. As the stone progresses to the lower ureter, loin pain is typically referred more to the groin, external genitalia and the anterior surface of the thigh. When the stone is in the intramural ureter, the pain can be referred to the tip of the penis. Strangury, the painful passage of a few drops of urine, typically occurs with the stone in the intramural part of the ureter.
Slide 33-

Haematuria Almost every attack of ureteric colic is associated with microscopic haematuria, which lasts for a day or so. More profuse bleeding is uncommon and should raise the suspicion that the colic is due to passage of a clot.
Slide 34-

When the stone becomes impacted, the attacks of colic give way to a more consistent dull pain, often felt in the iliac fossa. The pain may be increased by exercise and lessened by rest. Severe renal pain subsiding after a day or so suggests complete ureteric obstruction. If obstruction persists after 1–2 weeks, the calculus should be removed because prolonged distension of the kidney will eventually lead to atrophy of the renal parenchyma.
Slide 35-

Impaction There are five sites of narrowing where the stone may be arrested What are those?
Slide 36-

Abdominal examination Tenderness and some rigidity over some part of the course of the ureter. On the right side is to distinguish from ?? The presence of haematuria does not rule out appendicitis, because an inflamed appendix can give rise to a local ureteritis.
Slide 37-

Imaging Plain abdominal radiograph. Intravenous urography. Spiral CT scan. Cystoscopy.
Slide 38-

CONSERVATIVE MANAGEMENT Mainstay is the forced increase in fluid intake to achieve a daily urine output of 2 liters . Increased urine output has two effects- Mechanical diuresis The dilute urine alters the supersaturation of stone components. Dietary Recommendations
Slide 39-

SURGICAL MANAGEMENT OF RENAL CALCULI
Slide 40-

The primary goal of is to achieve maximal stone clearance with minimal morbidity. Four minimally invasive treatment modalities are available: SWL, PNL, ureteroscopy, and laparoscopic stone surgery. Recent advancements in endoscopic technology and surgical technique have dramatically reduced the need for open surgical procedures to treat patients with renal and ureteral calculi.
Slide 41-

About 80% to 85% patients can be treated with SWL. Factors associated with poor stone clearance rates: large renal calculi (mean, 22.2 mm), stones within dependent or obstructed portions of the collecting system, stone composition (mostly calcium oxalate monohydrate and brushite), obesity or a body habitus that inhibits imaging, unsatisfactory targeting of the stone.
Slide 42-

Management of small stones Most small urinary calculi will pass spontaneously . The presence of infection in an obstructed upper urinary tract is dangerous and is an indication for urgent surgical intervention.
Slide 43-

Percutaneous nephrolithotomy Placement of a hollow needle into the renal collecting system through the soft tissue of the loin and the renal parenchyma. the nephroscope is inserted through the track to visualise the stone. Small stones are grasped under vision and extracted. Larger stones are fragmented and removed in pieces. The aim is to remove all fragments if possible, and this may take some time if the calculus is large. When the operation is over, a nephrostomy drain is left in the system.
Slide 44-

PCNL is sometimes combined with ESWL in the treatment of stag-horn calculi. Complications of PCNL include haemorrhage from the punctured renal parenchyma perforation of the collecting system perforation of the colon or pleural cavity during placement of the percutaneous track.

Slide 46-

Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) A urinary calculus has a crystalline structure. Bombarded with shock waves of sufficient energy it disintegrates into fragments. As shock waves are poorly transmitted through air, both the patient and the shock-wave generators were immersed in a bath of water. Modern ESWL machines do not have a water bath . The shocks are generated by piezoelectric cells.
Slide 47-

When ESWL is successful, the stone fragments must pass down the ureter. Ureteric colic is common after ESWL. The bulky fragments of a large stone may impact in the ureter, causing obstruction. To avoid this, a stent should be placed in the ureter so that the kidney can drain while the pieces of stone pass. Occasionally, impacted fragments have to be removed ureteroscopically . The principal complication of ESWL is infection.
Slide 48-

Open surgery for renal calculi Pyelolithotomy- indicated for stones in the renal pelvis. Extended pyelolithotomy Nephrolithotomy Partial nephrectomy Nephrectomy
Slide 49-

Treatment of bilateral renal stones Usually the kidney with better function is treated first unless the other kidney is more painful or there is pyonephrosis, which needs urgent decompression. Silent bilateral staghorn calculi in the elderly and infirm may be treated conservatively. The patient should be encouraged to maintain a high fluid intake.
Slide 50-

SURGICAL MANAGEMENT OF URETERIC CALCULI
Slide 51-

Indications for surgical removal of a ureteric calculus Repeated attacks of pain and the stone is not moving Stone is enlarging Complete obstruction of the kidney Urine is infected Stone is too large to pass Stone is obstructing solitary kidney or there is bilateral obstruction
Slide 52-

Endoscopic stone removal A ureteroscope is a long thin endoscope passed transurethrally across the bladder into the ureter. The ureteroscope is used to remove stones that are impacted in the ureter. Stones that cannot be caught in baskets or endoscopic forceps under direct vision are fragmented by a lithotripter.

Slide 54-

Push bang A stone in the middle or upper part of the ureter is pushed back into the kidney using a ureteric catheter. Then ESWL. Ureterolithotomy
Slide 55-

BLADDER STONES A primary bladder stone is one that develops in sterile urine; it often originates in the kidney. A secondary stone occurs in the presence of infection, outflow obstruction, impaired bladder emptying or a foreign body Most vesical calculi are mixed. Freely moves in the bladder.
Slide 56-

Clinical features Men are affected eight times more frequently than women. Stones may be asymptomatic and found incidentally. Frequency is the earliest symptom. Sensation of incomplete bladder emptying. Pain (strangury) - occurs at the end of micturition and is referred to the tip of the penis or to the labia majora. In children, screaming and pulling at the penis with the hand at the end of micturition are indicative of bladder stone. Haematuria Interruption of the urinary stream is due to the stone blocking the internal meatus.
Slide 57-

Investigations Examination of the urine reveals microscopic haematuria, pus or crystals. ultrasound or plain radiogram. Imaging of the whole of the urinary tract should be undertaken to exclude an upper tract stone.
Slide 58-

Treatment The cause of the stone should be sought and treated. Litholapaxy Open cystolithotomy
