Nephrolithiasis is a common disorder with a lifetime recurrence rate as high as 80%.4 Almby B., Meirik O., Schönebeck J. Incidence, morbidity and complications of renal and ureteral calculin (sic) a well defined geographical area Scand J Urol Nephrol 1975 ; 9 : 249 [cross-ref]

Haga clic aquí para ir a la sección de Referencias Along with the great strides that have been made in the surgical management of nephrolithiasis, with the advent of shock wave lithotripsy and the resurgence of percutaneous procedures, refinements in the medical management of stone disease have resulted in a significant reduction in the rate of stone formation. Most patients with kidney stones have at least one identifiable physiologic derangement that results in abnormal levels of one or more stone-forming constituents, promoters, or inhibitors; often, these derangements are correctable. Consequently, not only can stone formation be reduced90 Pak C.Y.C. Sodium cellulose phosphate: Mechanism of action and effect on mineral metabolism J Clin Pharmacol 1973 ; 13 : 15
