Urinary calculi are very common in our daily life, which are common and frequently occurring diseases in urology. For urinary calculi, active treatment is generally required. Urinary calculi often cause pain, hematuria, urinary obstruction, and urinary tract infection. For urinary calculi, a reasonable treatment plan should be selected according to the location, size and nature of the stones. Generally, kidney and ureter stones, which are common in clinical practice, belong to upper urinary tract stones. If the stones are small, they can be treated by extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy; If the stones are large, numerous and hard, they can usually be treated by surgery. For lower urinary tract stones such as bladder stones and urethral stones, the stones can be removed by cystoscopy and using powerful lithotripsy forceps. In addition, since urinary tract stones are easy to induce urinary tract infection, attention should be paid to the use of antibiotics to prevent and treat infection.
