Summary

This is a prospective observational study conducted at Binh Dan Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, from July to December 2023. The study aims to analyze the composition of kidney stones in patients undergoing surgical interventions such as percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), ureteroscopic lithotripsy, laparoscopic ureterolithotomy, or open surgery. Stone fragments collected during the procedures were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and infrared spectroscopy (IR).

The primary goal of this study is to identify the types and distribution of kidney stone compositions in a Vietnamese surgical cohort and compare them with global patterns. Findings from this study are expected to provide insights into age- and gender-related differences in stone composition, and contribute to improved prevention strategies for recurrent urolithiasis.

The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the University of Medicine and Pharmacy at Ho Chi Minh City. All participants provided written informed consent.

Stone Composition Analysis

This intervention involves the compositional analysis of kidney stone fragments retrieved during surgical procedures. The stone samples are analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and infrared spectroscopy (IR) to determine their crystal composition. This is a non-invasive, laboratory-based diagnostic procedure. No drug, device, or therapeutic intervention was administered to participants as part of this observational study.
