ABSTRACT
Idiopathic hypercalciuria may be associated with urinary tract infection, hematuria, nephrolithiasis and osteopenia. In order to describe the occurrence of these concurrent conditions related to the variation in urinary calcium and hypercalciuria response to sequential therapy, with a normal protein and low sodium diet, potassium citrate and hydrochlorothiazide; 46 patients older than 4 years, with no urinary tract diseases, sphincter control and normal blood creatinine values were followed-up during 43 months. Hypercalciuria was seen to be associated with kidney stones (EAR 47%; RR 3.3), hematuria (EAR 71%; RR 2.5), urinary tract infections (EAR 57%; RR 3), and osteopenia (EAR 33%; RR 3). A normal value of urinary calcium was achieved with sequential therapy in 43 patients, but during follow-up 32 patients discontinued treatment and hypercalciuria recurred in 44% of them, in association with hematuria and urinary tract infection. Conclusions. Sequential therapy reduced hypercalciuria and the incidence of associated diseases.
RESUMEN
La hipercalciuria idiopática puede asociarse con infección urinaria, hematuria, nefrolitiasis y osteopenia; con los objetivos de describir la aparición de estas patologías concurrentes, relacionadas con la variación del calcio urinario y la respuesta al tratamiento secuencial de la hipercalciuria, con dieta normoproteica-hiposódica, citrato de potasio e hidroclorotiazida, controlamos durante 43 meses a 46 pacientes mayores de 4 años, sin uropatías, con control esfinteriano y creatininemias normales. Observamos que la hipercalciuria se asoció con litiasis renal (RAE 47%; RR 3,3); hematuria (RAE 71%; RR 2,5); infecciones urinarias (RAE 57%; RR 3) y osteopenia (RAE 33%; RR 3). La terapéutica secuencial normalizó el calcio urinario en 43 pacientes, pero durante el seguimiento, 32 interrumpieron el tratamiento y la hipercalciuria reapareció en 44% de ellos, asociada a hematuria e infección urinaria. Conclusiones. El tratamiento secuencial redujo la hipercalciuria y disminuyó la incidencia de patologías asociadas.
