Abstract

Amaç: Çocuklarda nefrolitiazis oluşumunda çevresel, genetik risk faktörleri ile metabolik bozuklukların de yer aldığı ve sıklığı gittikçe artan bir hastalık grubudur. En sık saptanan metabolik bozukluklar hiperkalsiüri ve hipositratüridir. Çalışmamızın amacı, Akdeniz bölgesindeki pediatrik yaş grubunda nefrolitiazisli hastaların başvuru tarihleri, demografik, metabolik ve klinik özelliklerini değerlendirerek risk faktörlerini belirlemektir.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Ocak 2015 ile Mart 2018 arasında hastanemiz çocuk nefroloji polikliniğinde nefrolitiazis tanısı almış 129 hasta (55 kız,74 erkek) çalışmaya alındı. Bu hastaların başvuru tarihleri, demografik parametreleri, klinik semptomları, metabolik ve radyolojik tetkikleri retrospektif olarak incelendi.
Bulgular: Toplam 129 hasta, 55’i kız (%42,6) ve 74’ü erkek (%57,4), yaş ortalaması 4,2±4,7 yıl idi. Hastaların %71,3’ünde tek taraflı, %24,8’inde ise iki taraflı renal yerleşimli taş saptandı. En sık görülen klinik semptom huzursuzluk, renal kolik ve hematüri idi. Metabolik değerlendirmeler incelendiğinde hastaların 39’unda hiperürikozüri, 29’unda hiperkalsiüri, 14’ünde hipositratüri ve hiperoksalüri, üçünde sistinüri saptandı. İdrar yolu enfeksiyonu 23 hastada tespit edilirken, 15 hastaya medikal tedaviye ek olarak cerrahi tedavi gerekli görüldü. Geliş tarihleri incelendiğinde hastaların büyük kısmının (%67,4’ü) sıcak mevsimlerde (ilkbahar ve yaz) başvurduğu ve tanı aldığı saptandı.
Sonuç: Sıcak iklimde yaşamanın, dehidratasyon nedeniyle böbrek taşı oluşma riskini arttırdığını düşünmekteyiz. Sıvı alımının yetersiz olması, infant grubunda, böbrek taşlarının büyümesini destekleyen idrar ürik asit ve kalsiyumun yüksek atılımına yol açmaktadır.

Abstract

Aim: Children are an increasingly prevalent group of diseases in which environmental, genetic risk factors and metabolic disorders are associated in the formation of nephrolithiasis. The most prevalent metabolic abnormalities are hypocitraturia and hypercalciuria. The aim of our study is to assess the risk factors by determining the application dates, demographic, metabolic and clinical features of nephrolithiasis patients in the pediatric age group in the Mediterranean region.
Materials and Methods: We evaluated the clinical, radiological, laboratory findings and metabolic parameters of 129 children (74 boys and 55 girls) with nephrolithiasis between January 2015 and March 2018, retrospectively. Application dates of patients, symptoms, urinary infection, metabolic disturbances, radiological findings and treatment modalities were determined.
Results: A total of 129 patients, 55 (42.6%) were female and 74 (57.4%) were male, the mean age was 4.2 ± 4.7 years. 71.3% of the patients had unilateral and 24,8% of the patients had bilateral renal stones.
The most common clinical symptom was restlessness, renal colic and hematuria. When the metabolic evaluations were examined, 39 patients had hyperuricosuria, 29 had hypercalciuria, 14 had hypocitraturia and hyperoxaluria, and 3 had cystinuria. While urinary tract infection was detected in 23 patients, surgical treatment was required in addition to medical treatment in 15 patients. When the dates of arrival were investigated, it was found that most of the patients (67.4%) were admitted and diagnosed to the warm seasons (spring and summer).
Conclusion: We think that living in warm climates increase the risk of harboring kidney stones due to dehydration, which leads to a high excretion of urinary calcium and other minerals that promote the growth of kidney stones.
