Presentation
To the best of our knowledge, the presented case is the first one in the literature. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We report a case of a 3-year-old boy with Lesch-Nyhan disease who presented with recurrent obstructing xanthine stones. [wjnu.org]
The pa-tient presented with a 2-year history of intermi-ttent left flank associated with macroscopic hematuria explored by ultrasonography at 7 years of age, which was reported as normal. [go.gale.com]
Approximately 50 % of the patients with classical hereditary xanthinuria present with symptoms of urinary tract infection, hematuria, renal colic, acute renal failure, crystalluria or urolithiasis. [orpha.net]
Jasmin Paris and Ana Jacinto both presented an abstract presentation at the 2012 ECVIM Congress which was recently held in Maastricht. [ed.ac.uk]
Entire Body System
- Pain
Kidney stones are a common cause of blood in the urine and pain in the abdomen, flank, or groin. Kidney stones occur in 1 in 20 people at some time in their life. [medicinenet.com]
Clinical Presentation The classic adult presentation of sudden, debilitating flank pain is uncommon in children. [pedsinreview.aappublications.org]
The second patient was a 5-year-old boy who had a 2-week history of abdominal pain and gross hematuria. Conventional excretory intravenous urography showed a non-functioning right kidney. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
They may cause pain, nausea, vomiting, hematuria, and, possibly, chills and fever due to secondary infection. Diagnosis is based on urinalysis and radiologic imaging, usually noncontrast helical CT. [msdmanuals.com]
- Asymptomatic
However asymptomatic, and therefore undiagnosed, stones may invade the kidney and urinary tract, resulting in destruction of parenchyma, nephrectomy and renal failure. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
However asymptomatic, and therefore undiagnosed, stones may invade the kidney and urinary tract, resulting in destruction of parenchyma, nephrec-tomy and renal failure. [go.gale.com]
More than 50% of all children do not develop calculi. [1] The younger brother of the first patient was asymptomatic and did not have calculi. [sjkdt.org]
Family study revealed an asymptomatic xanthinuria in younger brother. The second patient was a 5-year-old boy who had a 2-week history of abdominal pain and gross hematuria. [pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Gastrointestinal
- Abdominal Pain
The second patient was a 5-year-old boy who had a 2-week history of abdominal pain and gross hematuria. Conventional excretory intravenous urography showed a non-functioning right kidney. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Two weeks before hospitalization, the patient had abdominal pain and vomited frequently, and later presented with gross hematuria. [sjkdt.org]

- Hematuria
The second patient was a 5-year-old boy who had a 2-week history of abdominal pain and gross hematuria. Conventional excretory intravenous urography showed a non-functioning right kidney. [go.gale.com]

- Nephrolithiasis
Introduction Nephrolithiasis occurs following a complex interaction of environment and heredity. [pedsinreview.aappublications.org]
This case illustrates a complication of high-dose allopurinol therapy in the treatment of uric acid nephrolithiasis. FULL TEXT [annals.org]

The process of stone formation, urolithiasis, is also called nephrolithiasis. [medicinenet.com]
At his present age of 15 years, the patient remains free of nephrolithiasis. Serum uric acid levels in the patient's mother and father were normal. [sjkdt.org]
Serum
- Hyperuricemia
They may also occur in association with states of profound hyperuricemia such as myeloproliferative disease after treatment with allopurinol. If the underlying disorder is not addressed, a high risk of stone recurrence exists. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Factors predisposing to kidney stones include recent reduction in fluid intake, increased exercise with dehydration, medications that cause hyperuricemia (high uric acid) and a history of gout. [medicinenet.com]

Therefore, to raise clinical awareness, we reviewed and report our experience in the treatment of patients with these stones, discussing the underlying pathophysiology and approach to treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Management and treatment There is no curative treatment. Low purine diet and high fluid intake is recommended. Since the solubility of xanthine is not affected by urinary pH, alkalization is of no value. [orpha.net]
Prognosis
Prognosis The overall prognosis is favorable, even though, in some cases, the disease progresses to end-stage renal insufficiency. The documents contained in this web site are presented for information purposes only. [orpha.net]

Treatment and prognosis Indications for surgical management include: larger stones, typically that above 5 mm in size extended duration of symptoms location of the stone, with proximal calculi less likely to spontaneously pass infection or septic features [radiopaedia.org]
Etiology
Etiology Hereditary xanthinuria is due to mutations in the xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH, 2p23.1) or molybdenum cofactor sulfurase (MOCOS, 18q12.2) genes, resulting in failure to degrade hypoxanthine and xanthine to uric acid and leading to the accumulation [orpha.net]
As pediatric urolithiasis with a metabolic etiology is the most common disease, evaluating the metabolic risk factors in patients is necessary to both effectively treat current stones and prevent recurrence. [nature.com]
The presence of mixed stones suggests a multi factorial etiology. [alliedacademies.org]
Uric acid Hyperuricosuria is not always associated with hyperuricemia and is seen in a variety of settings (see above), although in most instances uric acid stones occur in patients with no identifiable underlying etiology 6. [radiopaedia.org]

Prevention
In addition, interest in disease prevention continues to grow and understanding basic questions and the underlying pathophysiology of stone disease will help optimize management strategies. [books.google.de]
This may be effectively prevented by administration of allopurinol; however, its overdosage may result in xanthinuria and xanthine urolithiasis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Xanthine uroli-thiasis is usually a benign condition, easy to prevent or cure by appropriate alkalinization, forced hydration and restriction of dietary purines. [go.gale.com]
