Multiple Kidney Stones

There are many types of kidney stones.

1. Calcium Oxalate Calculi.

  •  75%
  • Occur in alkaline urine
  • Called Mulberry stones
  • With sharp projections
  • Cause bleeding
  • Often black due to altered blood on their surface
  • Symptomatic even when small

2. Phosphate Calculi.

  • 15%
  • Occur in strongly alkaline urine
  • Commonly occur against a background of chronic urinary infection
  • Usually compounds of magnesium, ammonium and calcium phosphate
  • Surface is smooth
  • Dirty white in colour
  • May grow rapidly & fill the calyceal system of kidney taking on their shape ( Staghorn calculi)
  • Also called struvite calculi

 Phosphate Calculi
 Phosphate Calculi

3. Uric Acid Calculi

  • 5%
  • Occur in acid urine
  • Due to a consequence of high level of uric acid in urine
  • Hard in consistency
  • Surface is smooth
  • Light brown in colour
  • Radio logically translucent



4. Cystine Calculi


  • 2%
  • Relatively rare
  • Occur in acid urine
  • Usually multiple
  • White in colour
  • Extremely hard in consistency, so difficult to treat
  • Metabolic origin (Decreased reabsorption of cystine from the renal tubules)



5. Xanthine and Pyruvate Calculi


  • 1%
  • Rare
  • Inborn error of metabolism is cause.

Acute Appendicitis Pic 1

It is very simple to diagnose acute appendicitis. First take history from patient.

Appendicitis pain symptoms is migrating in type. Appendix pain starts from epigastrium then shift to umbilical area then finally shift to the right iliac fossa (right lower quadrant of abdomen) or pain occurs in whole abdomen and finally shift to right illiac region. Pain is colicky in nature.

Nausea, vomiting & loss of appetite are also other symptoms which may be present.

Acute Appendicitis Pic 2

Acute appendicitis signs are tenderness at Mc Burney's point, Rebound tenderness, Roving's sign and Cough sign are positive. Fever is also a sign.

Acute Appendicitis Pic 3

Mc Burney's point is a point at between lateral 1/3 and medial 2/3 of an imaginary line drawn from the anterior superior iliac spine to umbilicus.

Mc Burney' Point


Rebound tenderness : Patient feels pain at Mc Burney's point after
releasing the pressure.

Roving's sign : Patient feels pain at Mc Burney's point when press at left iliac fossa.

Cough sign : Patient feels  pain at Mc Burney's point when asks to cough.

Acute Appendicitis Pic 4

Investigations 

1.Blood C P (Blood Complete  Picture) : Shows leucocytosis (Increase White Blood Cell count) and neutrophilia (Increase Neutrophil count).

2. Ultrasound of abdomen :  May help in diagnosis.

3. Diagnostic laproscopy. Diagnostic as well as Therapeutic.
