[Role of biochemical methods in follow-up and treatment of patients with urolithiasis].
4-6-year follow-up using different tests covered 15 patients with urolithiasis and 11 control subjects aged 25 to 66 years. All the patients underwent 1 to 5 sessions of extracorporeal lithotripsy and one patient underwent open surgery. Clinical and biochemical findings on the groups were compared to the evidence of Litos test. Initiation of antirecurrence therapy should be based on the information gained with different methods, primarily, biochemical. Follow-up of the patients including biochemical control over their metabolic condition must be conducted for at least 5 years.
