Résumé : | Factors predisposing to renal stone formation have been studied in 309 patients. Dehydration before diagnosis of urolithiasis was due in 12% of the cases to frequent diarrhea and in 36% to bad working conditions. Daily fluid intake was less than 1 liter in 25% of the patients before stone formation and was persistently low in 11% after stone discovery. 41% of the patients drank irregularly over the day, before stone formation, and 11% continued to do so after its detection. Immobilization was present in the patient's history in over 20% of the cases. Normocalcemic hypercalciuria was found in 26% of the patients. 24% of the patients drank water with a calcium concentration of 100-599 mg/l before the lithiasis was diagnosed; 21% continued to do so after stone discovery or paradoxically even drank harder water than before stone detection. |
