Abstract
Investigation of endemic features of urolithiasis taking into account local factors, both natural and technology-related ones, allows one to obtain additional information about one of the reasons of this disease. Mineral composition and distribution of urinary calculi in patients from Novosibirsk and Omsk Regions are investigated. A common feature of urolithiasis in the regions under comparison is noticeable predominance of oxalate urinary calculi. However, at the conservation of the general trend of distribution with respect to the prevailing component, patients from Novosibirsk Region exhibit an increase in phosphate and decrease in urate urolithiasis. Noticeable differences in paragenesis of minerals comprising multicomponent urinary calculi and in the composition of single-component concretions are observed. In the Novosibirsk samples, single-mineral concretions are more frequently composed of whwellite, while in the Omsk samples it is anhydrous uric acid. Comparative analysis of the mineral composition and distribution of urinary calculi in other regions according to literature data was carried out.
