Effects of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy on Renal Function in Patients with Kidney Stone Disease

Abstract: The effects of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy on glomerular and tubular renal functions were determined by serum β2-microglobulin (Sβ2m) and urinary β2-microglobulin (Uβ2m) estimations in patients with nephrolithiasis. Unilateral treatment was performed in all patients. Urinary and serum creatinine levels were determined according to the method of Yatzidis. Sβ2m and Uβ2m were measured by radioimmunoassay the day before ESWL, on the day of… Show more

“…This protein is the light chain of the class I major histocompatibility antigens [13]. Determination of serum β 2 -m and the urine β 2 -m concentration is used to evaluate renal function in man [3,9]. The determination of β 2 -m has been carried out by radioimmunoassay [4], enzyme-linked Immunosorbent assay (ELISA) [2] and immunoturbidimetry [1], but there are no reports on the measurement of β 2 -m concentrations in dog body fluids.…”

“…Increased β2-m urinary excretion is associated with renal diseases characterized by tubular damage [21]. Since then extensive clinical studies have been carried out, and the determination of urinary β2-m is now important for the evaluation of renal tubular function [13,22]. To obtain more information about the biological role and evolution of β2-m, it became necessary to work in animal systems.…”

“…Estudios experimentales en animales de laboratorio indican que el aclaramiento de inulina (pará-metro que mide la filtración glomerular), se reduce transitoriamente en el periodo comprendido entre 1 y 4 horas post-litotricia para recuperarse posteriormente 7 . Sin embargo, esta alteración glomerular no suele detectarse si se utilizan pruebas menos sensibles como el aclaramiento de creatinina 8,9 . El aumento de la excreción urinaria de las enzimas N-acetil-glucosamina (NAG) y de alanino-amino-peptidasa (AAP), nos mostrará el grado de daño que sufre la función tubular renal tras una sesión de litotricia, así como el tiempo de recuperación de esta alteración en la excreción tubular.…”

Algunos autores también registran un incremento transitorio de N-acetil glucosamida y otros marcadores asociados a lesión tubular, como la gamma-glutamiltransferrasa y la beta-2-microglobulina inmediatamente después de la litotricia 6,8 . Sin embargo, para otros autores no existe evidencia de elevación de la enzima NAG después del tratamiento con litotricia e incluso tras nefrostomía percutánea 10 .…”
