Assessment:
Urolithiasis (ICD 10: N21.9)- Frassetto and Kohlstadt (2011) report that plaques are composed of calcium
phosphate/apatite deposits, localized to the basement membrane of the thin loop of Henle and extending
into the papillary interstitium. When these plaques form, they erode through the urothelium and constitute a
stable, anchored surface on which calcium oxalate crystals can nucleate and grow as attached stones (Frassetto
& Kohlstadt, 2011). This patient is believed to have nephrolithiasis as he complains of acute severe flank pain,
nausea, urinary frequency, groin pain, and costovertebral angle tenderness. In addition, the ultrasonographer
has stated the patient has a 5mm stone which is present at the junction of the ureter and the bladder. The
location of the stone is known as ureterovesical junction. Lastly, the urinalysis identified hematuria to further
support the diagnosis.
