- Abstract
Urolithiasis is one of the most frequent urological diseases. Identifying the causes of stone formation forms the basis for successful prevention of recurrence. Metabolic diagnostics and measures for prevention of recurrence are based on the assignment of the patient to a low-risk or high-risk group. Analysis of the urinary calculi is an essential prerequisite for identifying patients at risk. The general recommendations on diet and lifestyle are considered to be the basis of treatment. Depending on the type of stone and the individual biochemical risk profile of a patient, these general measures should be supplemented by targeted medical nutrition therapy and pharmacological treatment. Mixed stones can pose a challenge for the treatment and prevention of recurrence. A personalized treatment decision that takes the various components of mixed stones into account could further improve the prevention of recurrence of urolithiasis.
