NephrolithiasisRenal calculiA common cause of renal failureSupersaturation of the urine by stone-forming

constituentsCalcium, oxalate, and uric acidDehydration, low fluid intake

Kidney stones can cause kidney damage in two primary ways

An untreated obstructing stone that causes persistent severe blockage

Infection related stones can lead to ongoing chronic urinary tract infections that cause damage slowly through inflammation and scarring of the kidney tissue

Obstructive uropathy

Obstructive uropathyBlockage of the flow of urine out of the bodyCommon cause of acute and chronic renal

failureIntrinsic and extrinsic causeUrine stasis, infection, stone formation,

anatomical changes, renal deterioration

Obstructive uropathy Post-renal renal failureSupravesical obstruction (Bilateral ureteral

obstruction) infravesical obstruction (Bladder outlet

obstruction)HydronephrosisSurgical anuriaOverflow incontinence

Urinary diversionA surgical procedure that reroutes the

normal flow of urine out of the bodyUrine cannot flow out of the body External diversion (nephrostomy)Internal diversion (double J stent)
