Keywords:
urinary stones, chemical composition, Calcium oxalate, urateAbstract
This study was done to calculate the incidence of urinary stones in relation to age, gender and chemical composition of urinary stone. Moreover, the study was conducted in the period from the 1st of December 2020 to 1st of December 2021. Hundred patients were included in the study from both sexes, their ages ranged from 24 to 57year whom diagnosed with renal stone. All samples analyzed qualitatively by standard methods. The study showed that renal stones were more in males (80%) than females (20%) with male to female ratio of 4:1 with higher occurrence at the age of 50-57years. The commonest type was the calcium salts (oxalate and non-oxalate). Finally, the researcher concludes that the urinary stones are a common disease in west of Iraq with higher incidence in men than women. The commonest age of occurrence is 50-57 years and the commonest type is calcium oxalate.
