Abstract

Introduction: Osteopenia of trabecular-rich bone tissues in patients with urolithiasis has been suggested. We performed a study to evaluate the prevalence of osteopenia and OSTEOPOROSIS in Iranian patients with recurrent urinary tract stones. Methods: In this case control study 24 male patients, aged 30-50 years old, who had recurrent urolithiasis (more than once per year) and were referred to extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) unit, entered our study. We also valuated 24 healthy male controls of a comparable age group. Both groups had similar diets. Ages, body mass index (weight/height2), stone disease duration and BMD of two ports, Lumbar spine (L2-L4) and femur region were evaluated and compared in both groups. Linear, regression and t-test were used to analyze the data.Results: Excluding confounding factors, BMD difference in both lumbar and femur region between patients and controls were statistically significant (P<0.01). BMD results were quite independent of age and body mass index. According to regression analysis, there was a significant correlation between BMD of lumbar and duration of urolithiasis (P<0.001, r=-0.73). The same significant correlation existed between BMD of femur and duration of disease, although not as the previous one (P<0.01, r=-0.52). Conclusion: BMD decrease in patients with urolithiasis may herald a primary defect of bone metabolism. As 30% of patients were osteopenic, calcium intake and its restriction should be monitored in these patients.
