If left untreated, <30% of patients with nephrolithiasis may progress to develop renal colicky pain due to increase in rate of growth.Most of the stones pass spontaneously. about 10-20% of symptom-causing stones fail to pass. Lower poles stones were significantly less likely to cause symptoms or pass spontaneously. They can progress to hydronephrosis especially when combined or superimposed by u[[Urinary tract infection|rinary tract infection]]. Common complications of nephrolithiasis include [[hydronephrosis]], [[chronic renal failure]], [[hypertension]], [[cardiovascular disease]], and increased risk of fracture. Prognosis is generally excellent. Approximately 80-85% resolve spontaneously. Recurrence rates for calcium stones after the initial event is 40–50% at the end of 5 years and 50–60% at the end of 10 years.

Overview

If left untreated, <30% of patients with nephrolithiasis may progress to develop renal colicky pain due to increase in rate of growth.Most of the stones pass spontaneously. about 10-20% of symptom-causing stones fail to pass. Lower poles stones were significantly less likely to cause symptoms or pass spontaneously. They can progress to hydronephrosis especially when combined or superimposed by urinary tract infection. Common complications of nephrolithiasis include hydronephrosis, chronic renal failure, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and increased risk of fracture. Prognosis is generally excellent. Approximately 80-85% resolve spontaneously. Recurrence rates for calcium stones after the initial event is 40–50% at the end of 5 years and 50–60% at the end of 10 years.

Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis

Natural History

  • If left untreated, <30% of patients with nephrolithiasis may progress to develop renal colicky pain due to increase in rate of growth.[1]
  • Most of the stones pass spontaneously. about 10-20% of symptom causing stones fail to pass.[2]
  • Lower poles stones were significantly less likely to cause symptoms or pass spontaneously.
  • They can progress to hydronephrosis especially when combined or superimposed by urinary tract infection.

Complications

Prognosis

  • Prognosis is generally excellent.
  • Approximately 80-85% resolve spontaneously
  • Recurrence rates for calcium stones after the initial event is 40–50% at the end of 5 years and 50–60% at the end of 10 years.[6]
