Extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy (ESWL) is the treatment of choice in the majority of urinary calculi. In experimental and clinical research it has been shown that the method has short-term deleterious effects on renal function. Several factors, such as urinary tract infection (UTI), the site of the stone, pre-existing renal abnormalities, the number and intensity of the shock waves may influence the extent of the damage. The aim of this study was to measure the excretion of the renal microsomal enzyme, leucinaminopeptidase (MLAP) as expression of renal damage following ESWL. Our study shows that there was a significant elevation in urinary excretion of MLAP immediately after ESWL, especially in patients with UTI. These results indicate that UTI may be one of the risk factors for aggravation of renal damage after ESWL. However, these changes are transient and expressed less than in patients with light renal trauma arising because of other external influence.

D007931 Leucyl Aminopeptidase A zinc containing enzyme of the hydrolase class that catalyzes the removal of the N-terminal amino acid from most L-peptides, particularly those with N-terminal leucine residues but not those with N-terminal lysine or arginine residues. This occurs in tissue cell cytosol, with high activity in the duodenum, liver, and kidney. The activity of this enzyme is commonly assayed using a leucine arylamide chromogenic substrate such as leucyl beta-naphthylamide.

D008096 Lithotripsy The destruction of a calculus of the kidney, ureter, bladder, or gallbladder by physical forces, including crushing with a lithotriptor through a catheter. Focused percutaneous ultrasound and focused hydraulic shock waves may be used without surgery. Lithotripsy does not include the dissolving of stones by acids or litholysis. Lithotripsy by laser is LITHOTRIPSY, LASER.
