I am 29 year male and was diagnosed with bilateral renal calculi in 2000 and have been suffering since 2000. Recently got Ultra sound scan and found 7 mm stone in left kidney and 3mm stone in right kidney. I am adviced by urologist to have Plain KUB CT scan and the reuslt is: 8.0 X 4.32 mm calculi in left kidney, extra renal pelvis on left side and phleboliths in right pelvic.
i have Right renal non-obstructive calculi 4.

Also, it is important to note that the characteristic and size of renal and ureteral stones are important in choosing lithotripsy as the management of choice. “… consider ESWL in most patients with renal calculi as first-line treatment, except in patients with renal calculi bigger than 30 mm in diameter.
My daughter was diagnosed with polysistic kidney dease. She is now 3 years old and she has had 6-7 UTI and the last one was on 12/1/10 and she was in the hospital for 5 days she was recently diagnosed with hydronephrosis and her last renal ultrasound stated " there are focal echogenic structures bilaterally which are probably nonobstructive renal calculi" can someone explain to me what this means.
Possible causes of positive test include renal dysfunction, muscle breakdown, GU infections, inflammations, trauma, erosions, ulcers, calculi etc. I would suggest getting this evaluated by a primary care physician or a urologist for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management.
Hope this is helpful.
Take care!
Hi,
How is your husband? What are the symptoms present? One of the more common renal cysts is a simple renal or kidney cysts, which are abnormal, fluid-filled sacs that form in the kidneys. These are more common as people age and may be an incidental finding during imaging studies. The cause of simple kidney cysts is not fully understood but obstruction, deficiency of blood supply to the kidneys and even presence of diverticula may be responsible.
I recently had a CT scan of the Abdomen and pelvis. I cannot get an appointment for the results for two weeks but in the meantime I have asked for a copy of my results of the CT. I just want to know what "Pelvic Pleboliths, Cholelithiasis and benign sclerosis of the left femoral head" means. The report also reads " benign appearing cystic change within the right ovary - No free fluid".
Carbonated drinks have an adverse effect on healing and the additives in them can predispose to the formation of renal calculi, especially in a kidney that is recovering from an infective insult/
If the infection was persistent, your son would have had frequency of urination even at night.
Do ensure that he has adequate fluid intake 1500 - 2000 ml per day that includes milk, citrus juices, and water. You can always substitute carbonated drinks with lemonade.
The report said the liver pancreas gallbladder spleen and kidneys were all unremarkable. The report said the lesion appears to be a small hemangioma but too small to characterized. The report also noted there may be bilateral renal calculi but since the ct was done with contrast it can't be definitive. It also stated there were no significant abnormalities.

A doctor prescribed Amoxicillin 625mg + Tamsulosin medicine for 10 days to me. I have a side effect after taking Tamsulosin (Retrograde ejaculation) or any other ejaculation problem.
Is this normal or should I stop using Tamsulosin?
Or will it (Retrograde ejaculation ) recover after stop using ten days?
Should I keep getting Tamsulosin for 10 days or stop?
Had a chest CT scan for shortness of breath which incidentally showed a 4mm left renal stone. I have no symptoms and my physician's nurse simply advised me to follow up the chest CT scan in 1 year and never mentioned anything about the renal stone.
Does this sound correct - I shouldn't be worried about it unless I have pain?
