dc.description.abstract | Objective: We planned to examine the connection between serum uric acid (UA) values and prostatic calculi (PCal) presence and to evaluate the relation between PCal and other etiological factors. Methods: Patients between 20 and 60 years of age who were referred to the clinic with any reason and had non-contrast abdominal tomography (NCACT) for PCal were included in the study. While the patients were separated into 2 groups based on their serum UA level as >= 7 mg/dL (Group 1) and <7 mg/dL (Group 2), NCACT was also divided into 2 groups as PCal presence (PCal+) and lack (PCal-) serum UA, calcium, phosphorus, sodium, prostate-specific antigen levels and urinary analysis results of the patients were evaluated and compared. Results: PCal were detected in 38 of 169 patients (22%). PCal presence was detected to be significantly high in Group 1 (p = 0.015). While Type A localization PCal were present both in Groups 1 and 2. Based on PCal presence, UA level was detected to be significantly high in PCal+ patients (p = 0.01). No significant difference was detected among the groups in biochemical parameters and urine-related parameters other than UA. Conclusion: A significant relation was found between high UA value and PCal in this study. These results may show that UA plays an active role in PCal etiology. (C) 2018 S. Karger AG, Basel | en_US |
