Abstract

Objective

Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) are two forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and may be associated with the formation of urinary stones. Urinary lithiasis is a common condition that affects both men and women, and its prevalence is increasing due to dietary and environmental factors. Understanding the association between IBD and urolithiasis is important for the comprehensive treatment of patients. This review aims to evaluate the relationship between IBD and the formation of urinary calculi.

Methodology

PubMed/Medline database was used using the keywords simultaneously: (Inflammatory Bowel Disease) or (Crohn’s Disease) or (Ulcerative Colitis) and (Urolithiasis). After the preliminary search, 61 of 111 studies on the subject were examined. Other studies were included by the authors.

Results

Urinary lithiasis is more prevalent in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. The latter can be described as a risk factor for the former.

Conclusion

Patients with IBD are at increased risk of developing urolithiasis. Despite the limitations of this study, these patients may benefit from early screening, as well as strict control of disease activity, diet, medication and behaviors.
