Stone clustering of patients with cystine urinary stone formation.
OBJECTIVES To explore the history of symptomatic cystine stone formation. Cystinuria is a genetic defect that may result in the formation of recurrent cystine calculi. METHODS Thirty-four patients with cystinuria were retrospectively evaluated for treatment patterns, medical prophylaxis, and renal outcome. Patients were offered a conservative surgical regimen and routine radiographic and labo...
متن کاملTreating the cystine stone former presents a singular clinical challenge
Transl Androl Urol 2014;3(3):234 www.amepc.org/tau Cystinuria represents a relatively rare hereditary condition leading to impairment of the renal proximal tubule’s dibasic amino acid transporter. The only manifestation of this disease is calculi formation. Unlike other nephrolithiasis disease processes, cystine stone formation is due directly to supersaturation of an insoluble solute precipita...

Cystine stones occur in subjects carrying two autosomal mutant alleles resulting in excessive excretion of cystine, ornithine, arginine and lysine – hence the condition cystinuria. About 1:15–25 000 NSW neonates have been found to have cystinuria, with a gene frequency in Australia calculated to be about 1:4000 individuals. Since these studies were published, the mutant alleles have been identi...
