United States Renal Data System

Detailed information concerning the extent of the problem of analgesic nephropathy is limited, particularly for recent years. National annual data were collected in Australia/New Zealand by the Aushalian and New Zealand Dialysis and Transplant Registry (ANZDATA) [51] and in the United States by the United States Renal Data System (USRDS) [52]. In Eu-...

Based on the United States Renal Data System, which reported their retrospective records of 42,096 renal transplant recipients between 1994 and 1998, the incidence of urolithiasis was 0.11% for males and 0.15% for females (Abbott et al. 2003). At the time of calculus discovery, 67% had kidney stones and 33% ureteral stones. Uric acid stones are much less common than calcium calculi. The stones can be transplanted from cadaveric or living donors or develop de novo, favored either by metabolic disorders (tertiary hyperparathyroidism, hypercalciuria, hypocitraturia) or infection (Proteus tnirabilis), or the presence of a foreign body in the urinary tract (double-J stent) (Crook and Keoghane 2005).
