Impacto de la profilaxis secundaria en el manejo de pacientes con urolitiasis de alto riesgo de recidiva
In a previous study, we showed our experience in a group of 54 patients with a high risk of urolithiasis recurrence, who were subjected to a complete metabolic evaluation. Aim: To report the evolution of these patients after 5 years of follow-up. Patients and Methods: All patients underwent a genera...

Aim: To report the evolution of these patients after 5 years of follow-up. Patients and Methods: All patients underwent a general management of urolithiasis plus specific treatments for underlying metabolic disorders. Each patient had an annual medical assessment including a clinical examination, urinalysis and imaging studies (non-enhanced computed tomography scan, ultrasonography and plain abdominal Rx rays).
