dc.description.abstractObjective: As the urolithiasis is an endemic situation in our country, the urologists are well-experienced about thissituation. The prevention of urolithiasis recurrence is as important as the surgical treatment. For this reasonmetabolic evaluation and medical treatment of stone disease is extremely important. This study aimed to evaluateurological specialists' views of metabolic evaluation and medical treatment of urolithiasis. Thus, the main problemsand the probable solutions about medical treatment and metabolic evaluation of urinary system stone disease can beevaluated.Methods: The urologists working at Tekirdag were invited to the study. A face-to-face questionnaire, which wascomposed of three parts, was performed to the participants. In the first section, the demographic characteristics of theparticipants were evaluated. In the second and third sections, the approach of participants to metabolic evaluationand medical treatment in urolithiasis were investigated, respectively.Results: A total of 29 urologist who routinely performed endourological surgery were included to the study. When weevaluated their endourological practice, 65.5% of the participants were performing 10-25 endourological surgery permonth. When we asked the approach of participants about the metabolic evaluation, 34.5% reported that they did notperform metabolic evaluation to their adult patients and 65.5% did not perform to the children with urolithiasis. Allparticipants believed the efficacy of medical treatment however, 66% of the participants were performing at less thanhalf of their patients in clinical practice.Conclusions: The clinical practice about metabolic evaluation, stone analysis and metaphylaxis were lower thanexpected. Most of the participants were not able to make metabolic evaluation and stone analysis. Further studies areneeded to resolve the problems associated with metabolic evaluation and metaphylaxis administration.en_US
