[The prognosis of patients with struvite calculi with remaining/recurrent calculi and treatment refractory urinary tract infections].
29 patients suffering from recurrent struvite stones and/or persistent urinary tract infection were analyzed retrospectively with a follow-up time of 10 +/- 6 years. A sanitation of the urease-positive urinary tract infection was possible in 12 patients (41%). After 10 out of 53 operations (19%) rest stones were found. An unilateral nephrectomy was done in 3 cases. Despite rest calculi and persistent urinary tract infection no further calculus growth or deterioration of renal function was found in most patients.
