[A metabolic study of urolithiasis. Specificity, sensitivity, efficacy and reproducibility].
A preliminary diagnosis of the disease responsible for the stones is essential to allow appropriate medical treatment of renal stones. In this paper, the authors describe their diagnostic and treatment protocol based on computer-assisted urinary metabolic analysis. 413 subjects, divided into four groups, were prospectively evaluated to calculate their specificity, sensitivity, reproducibility and efficacy and to demonstrate the usefulness of this protocol.
