Download or read book Urinary Stones written by Albrecht Hesse and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although methods of lithotripsy are effective in removing urinary stones, these methods can only treat the symptoms, not cure the disease. Depending on the nature of the stones, there is a recurrence rate of 60-100% if no follow-up measures are taken. With detailed knowledge of the causes of urinary stone formation, however, recurrences can largely be prevented. This handbook is designed to assist clinicians and health care professionals caring for patients with renal stones by guiding them through the appropriate diagnostic studies and the development of effective and safe plans for treatment and prevention. Its clear organization makes it simple to use as a reference work, and its practical value is enhanced by the outline format which facilitates the understanding of diagnostic studies and treatment plans. For the new edition all chapters have been revised in consideration of the authors own experiences, the results in the international literature and current European and international guidelines. Detailed tables for the relevant nutrients (calcium, uric acid, oxalate) of numerous foodstuffs and reference values for the urinary composition in children have been added. The authors have extensive experience in both urinary stone research and the development and practical application of therapeutic concepts. The close cooperation among physicians, clinical chemists, and nutritionists is a successful strategy in the prophylaxis of recurrent urinary stones.
