Abstract | The prevalence of urolithiasis is steadily increasing worldwide in both genders. Diet and lifestyle, such as the rising prevalence of obesity and other metabolic syndrome traits, are considered key factors in this trend. Gender differences as a result of interventional therapy for urolithiasis have not been observed. However, iatrogenic injury to the male urethra is considered the most common reason for urethral strictures after endourologic (stone) therapy. In contrast, sepsis, as the major cause of urinary stone-related mortality, is more frequently reported in women after ureterorenoscopy and percutaneous nephrolithotomy. There are also differences in the frequency of various types of stones between men and women. Calcium oxalate and uric acid stones are more commonly observed in men, while carbonate apatite and struvite are diagnosed more often in women. Urinary stone analysis is therefore paramount for successful recurrence prevention. Diagnosis is based on the assignment of patients to the low-risk or high-risk group. The medical nutrition and pharmacological measures for the therapy of the respective type of stone are based on the risk factors in 24 h urine samples. A personalized approach that accounts for gender differences could further improve treatment, and recurrence prevention decisions for urinary stones. |
