Özet
In this study, the incidence and location of prostatic calculi on noncontrast abdominal computed tomography (NCACT) images of patients with and without renal stones were investigated. Between 2006 and 2013, NCACT images were taken of 133 patients treated for renal stones (Group I) and of 100 age-matched control patients with putative urinary stone disease (Group II) in our clinic. The incidence and location of prostatic calculi on these images were determined. The location of prostatic calculus was classified as type A if they were located in the main prostatic ducts, and type B if they were located outside the ducts. Prostatic calculi were present in 44.4 % of patients in Group I and 21.0 % of patients in Group II. The incidence of prostatic calculi was significantly higher in patients with urinary stones compared with those without (P < 0.001). The location of prostatic calculi in Group I included 74.6 % type A and 25.4 % type B while in Group II the locations were 76.2 % type A and 23.8 % type B. The incidence of prostatic calculi is more prevalent in patients with renal stones. On NCACT images, prostatic calculi were mostly detected in the main prostatic ducts, which were defined as type A.
