Title: [Phytotherapy in the treatment of ureteral calculi]. Author: Tkachuk VN, Tkachuk IN, Dubinskiĭ VIa. Journal: Urologiia; 2009; (3):13-5. PubMed ID: 19670808. Abstract: Phytotherapy with prolit was given to 95 patients with ureteroliths (size of the concrrements 0.4-0.6 cm). A 40-day treatment resulted in elimination of the concrements from the ureter in 89 (93.7%) patients. Prolit had a positive action on metabolism in urolithiasis patients: lowered hypercalciuria, uric acid in the blood, oxalates and uric acid in urine. This is important for prevention of recurrent lithogenesis which for 3 years after the treatment occurred only in 4 (4.2%) patients.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
