Abstract
Akmeņi ir minerālu nogulsnes, kas veidojas kristalizācijas ceļā, ko parasti atrod nierēs, urīnvados un urīnpūslī. Kalcija akmeņi ir izplatītākais akmens, kas sastopams pediatriskā slimnieka organismā. Ir svarīgi veikt akmens metabolisko novērtēšanu, lai izprastu pamatcēloni. Ārstēšanas izvēle ir atkarīga no akmens veida un atrašanās vietas. Minimāli invazīvas operācijas ir ieteicamākā ārstēšanas izvēle, salīdzinot ar atklātām operācijām. Tādēļ bērniem recidīvu biežums ir ļoti augsts, pareiza profilakse ir nepieciešama, veicot uztura un uzvedības izmaiņas, un lietot medikamentus.
Urinary stones are mineral deposits formed through crystallization commonly found in the kidneys, ureters, and bladder. Calcium stones are the most prevalent stone found in pediatric patients. It is significant to conduct a Metabolic evaluation of the stone to understand the underlying cause. The choice of treatment depends on the type and location of the stone. Minimally invasive surgeries are the most preferred choice of treatment over open surgeries. The recurrence rate is very high in children therefore, proper prevention is required through nutritional and behavioral changes and medications
