Urinary Tract Infection
Acute confusion is a common symptom of physical illness in the older patient. In the majority, it is transient and resolves on treatment of precipitants. In a subset of patients, however, neurological decline is progressive, raising concern about a serious underlying cause. We describe the case of a 71-year-old woman[…][ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Appendicitis
The differential diagnosis of appendicitis in children includes intussusception, Meckel’s diverticulum, gastroenteritis, constipation, mesenteric adenitis, pyelonephritis, nephrolithiasis[sages.org]
[…] that completely rules out appendicitis Urinalysis with pyuria or hematuria can be appendicitis due to an inflamed appendix next to the bladder and hematuria may represent nephrolithiasis[cdemcurriculum.com]

Medullary Sponge Kidney
The frequency of medullary sponge kidney was 12% in patients with nephrolithiasis compared with 1% in patients without nephrolithiasis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Many patients with MSK have no evidence of nephrolithiasis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Whether specific metabolic abnormalities are related to nephrolithiasis in patients with medullary sponge kidney (MSK) remains a debated issue.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Renal Tubular Acidosis
B1 heterozygosity should be considered in patients with calcium nephrolithiasis and urinary abnormalities such as alkalinuria or hypocitraturia.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
She had recurrent nephrolithiasis and had operated because of hydronephrosis. She had two episodes of fatigue and walking disability previously.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The most important consequence of dRTA is (recurrent) nephrolithiasis. The diagnosis is based on a urinary acidification test.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Hypercalcemia
Mutations of the CYP24A1 gene, encoding for the enzyme 25(OH)D-24-hydroxylase, can cause hypercalcemia, hypercalciuria, nephrolithiasis and nephrocalcinosis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We herein present a case of relapsed sarcoidosis with a deteriorated renal function accompanied by hypercalcemia, nephrolithiasis, and a ureteral stone in a woman with a history[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Hypercalcemia can result in nephrocalcinosis/nephrolithiasis and may lead to renal failure.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Nephrocalcinosis
Nephrolithiasis is a prevalent condition that affects 10%-15% of adults in their lifetime.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Nephrolithiasis is a prevalent condition with a high morbidity.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Diagnosis and management of pediatric nephrolithiasis/nephrocalcinosis is a very complex and challenging task for every pediatrician.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Nephrolithiasis
Nephrolithiasis is a disease common in both the Western and non-Western world.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
As patients with diabetes have increased risk of chronic kidney disease and nephrolithiasis can cause kidney injury, risk factors for nephrolithiasis should be identified[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Nephrolithiasis is a common affliction, affecting approximately 10% of adults.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
-
Primary Hyperparathyroidism
It is not uncommon, patient with parathyroid adenoma come to health care professionals with the chief complain of recurrence nephrolithiasis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Although primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is asymptomatic in most patients, its main clinical manifestation is nephrolithiasis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Maternal symptoms include: hyperemesis, muscle weakness, pancreatitis, nephrolithiasis, bone disease, mental status changes, and hypercalcaemic crisis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Renal Tuberculosis
Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XGPN) is a chronic renal infection typically associated with nephrolithiasis and a non-functioning kidney.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Three other major complications of renal tuberculosis: hypertension (RAS axis mediated) super-infection (12 to 50%) nephrolithiasis (7 to 18%) In 1940, Nesbit and Ratliff[slideshare.net]

Primary Hyperoxaluria
Patients typically present with recurrent nephrolithiasis and nephrocalcinosis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Genetic causes of nephrolithiasis are underestimated.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy was performed for nephrolithiasis when he was 16 years of age.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
