Аннотация
PURPOSE: To report the cases of urolithiasis in children and to assess epidemiological, clinical and therapeutically aspects.
PATIENTS AND
METHODS
We study retrospectively the cases of urolithiasis in children of 0 to 15 years old between 2003 and 2008. The parameters of study were: age, sex, clinical and therapeutically aspects.
RESULTS
We report 20 cases. The mean age was 5.4 years. The sex-ratio was 9/1. Dysuria was the most common symptom. Abdominal plain radiography associate with ultrasonography permitted the diagnostic in most cases. Stone location was in the bladder mainly (n = 12). Posterior Urethra valves were the common etiology found. The surgical treatment was performed in all cases and consisted of cystolithotomy in the majority.
CONCLUSION
Children urinary stones are less common than in adults. The etiologies are different but the treatment is coming to be alike.
