Can the Urologists Perform Stone Analysis, Metabolic Evaluation and Metaphylaxis at Urinary Tract Stone Disease in Tekirdağ?

Öz

Objective: As the urolithiasis is an endemic situation in our country, the urologists are well-experienced about this situation. The prevention of urolithiasis recurrence is as important as the surgical treatment. For this reason metabolic evaluation and medical treatment of stone disease is extremely important. This study aimed to evaluate urological specialists' views of metabolic evaluation and medical treatment of urolithiasis. Thus, the main problems and the probable solutions about medical treatment and metabolic evaluation of urinary system stone disease can be evaluated.  
Methods: The urologists working at Tekirdag were invited to the study. A face-to-face questionnaire, which was composed of three parts, was performed to the participants. In the first section, the demographic characteristics of the participants were evaluated. In the second and third sections, the approach of participants to metabolic evaluation and medical treatment in urolithiasis were investigated, respectively. 
Results: A total of 29 urologist who routinely performed endourological surgery were included to the study. When we evaluated their endourological practice, 65.5% of the participants were performing 10-25 endourological surgery per month. When we asked the approach of participants about the metabolic evaluation, 34.5% reported that they did not perform metabolic evaluation to their adult patients and 65.5% did not perform to the children with urolithiasis. All participants believed the efficacy of medical treatment however, 66% of the participants were performing at less than half of their patients in clinical practice. 
Conclusions: The clinical practice about metabolic evaluation, stone analysis and metaphylaxis were lower than expected. Most of the participants were not able to make metabolic evaluation and stone analysis. Further studies are needed to resolve the problems associated with metabolic evaluation and metaphylaxis administration.
