background and objective: nanoscopic life forms called nanobacteria or calcifying nanoparticles (cnp) are unconventional agents. these novel organisms are very small (0.1 to 0.5 microns) and possess unusual properties such as high resistance to heat and routine antimicrobial agents. nanobacteria are 100 times smaller than bacteria and protected by a shell of apatite, so they could be as candida...
Background and purpose: Osteoporosis is a bone disease that reduces bone strength and increases the risk of fractures. Evidence suggest an association between nephrolithiasis and osteoporosis and decrease in bone density. The aim of this study was to compare bone densitometry in women with kidney stones and women with no history of stones. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was c...
Introduction: Due to the increasing prevalence of kidney stones in children in recent decades and the increasing public health burden and worrying complications of kidney stones in these ages and the significant relationship between levels of 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D and plasma calcium, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of vitamin D level on kidney stones in children under 18 yea...
AIM To evaluate the incidence and characteristics of kidney stones in kidney transplant recipients. METHODS A literature search was performed using MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews from the inception of the databases through March 2016. Studies assessing the incidence of kidney stones in kidney transplant recipients were included. We applied a random-effects model ...
Background & Aims: Calcifying nanoparticles are different forms of calcium and phosphate in sediments. Recent evidence suggests that calcifying nanoparticles (CNPs) are probably selfreplicating. Several diseases are linked to nano-bacteria including kidney stones, gallbladder stone, cardiovascular plaques, oral–dental plaque, many cancers, and autoimmune diseases. The aim of this study was to a...
BACKGROUND Patients with symptomatic kidney stones are characterized by older age, male gender, white race, hypertension, obesity, metabolic syndrome and chronic kidney disease. Whether these characteristics differ in patients with asymptomatic kidney stones is unknown. METHODS All potential kidney donors who underwent protocol computed tomography angiograms/urograms (2000-08) at the Mayo Cli...
Background and purpose: Nephrolithiasis in the pediatric population includes 7% of all kidney stone disorders in all age groups. Potassium citrate is one of medical agents used in treatment of these disorders. This study investigated the role of potassium citrate in treatment of patients with kidney stones without any metabolic or infectious risk factors. Materials and methods: A clinical tria...

Laparoscopic Assisted ultrasound guided Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in Ectopic Pelvic Kidney
We report a patient with pain, abdominal palpable mass and a history of previous open renal stone surgery. Imaging studies showed a right pelvic kidney with multiple calyceal stones. We describe the successful management through laparoscopic assisted percutaneous nephrolithotomy with ultrasonography (PCNL) in ectopic pelvic kidney, stressing that this method is a minimally invasive therapeutic...
Introducatn: Kidney stone is the most common chronic kidney condition after hypertension. kidney stone recurrence is common worldwide and it is estimated that almost 50% of stone formers will have a recurrence within 10 years. Patients' knowledge on kidney stones and its recurrence prevention is an important factor in preventive behaviors of kidney stone recurrence. This study aimed to determin...
