Urinary tract stones were present in 41 patients out of 54 who presented with recurrent or persistent flank pain. Ultrasound showed pelvicaliceal dilatation in 95.1% of these patients. Ultrasound is a safe, quick, reliable and cost effective diagnostic tool in such cases. Intravenous urography should be reserved for cases which need surgical intervention.
在54例出现反复或持续性胁腹疼痛的患者中，41例存在尿路结石。超声检查显示，这些患者中有95.1%存在肾盂肾盏扩张。在这种情况下，超声是一种安全、快速、可靠且经济高效的诊断工具。静脉肾盂造影应保留用于需要手术干预的病例。
