[The changes in retinol-binding protein, N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase, albumin and IgG in urine before and after ESWL].
The retinol-binding protein (RBP), N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase, (NAG) albumin (alb) and IgG in urine were measured from 67 patients with urinary stone before and after ESWL. The results showed that the amount of alb, IgG and RBP in urine was obviously increased for the patients with renal, upper ureteral or lower ureteral stone associated with hydronephrosis. ESWL may injure the glomerule and tubules by direct or indirect action. 2 weeks after ESWL, the alb, IgG and RBP in urine returned to normal in 56.8%, 70.3% and 51.4% of cases respectively. Therefore we suggest that retreatment should be put off as late as 2 weeks after the first ESWL. However, it is not limited for retreatment of lower ureteral stones without hydro nephrosis.
