Metabolic evaluation: useful or outdated?

MUDr. Pavel Drlík, Ph.D.

Urolithiasis is a disease that has been with mankind since ancient times. It belongs to lifestyle diseases. The high incidence and prevalence rates with high rates of recurrence even in young patients prompt us to seek ways of influencing the formation and development of urolithiasis. Appropriate metabolic evaluation enables to identify the cause of the disease in the majority of cases. A subsequent analysis of results allows to determine correct metaphylaxis in each individual patient. Metaphylaxis is an important part of comprehensive care in patients with urolithiasis.

Keywords: urolithiasis, metaphylaxis, metabolic evaluation, lifestyle disease.
