Hyperuricosuria is a medical term referring to the presence of excessive amounts of
urinary bladder, and hyperuricemia. Notable indirect causes include uricosuric drugs, rapid breakdown of bodily tissues containing large quantities of DNA and RNA, and a diet high in purine
.
Medications that may contribute to the cure or amelioration of hyperuricosuria include
medical sign
of:
- Gout (very common)
- uric acid nephrolithiasis)
- Acute uric acid nephropathy
- Acute kidney failure
- Tumor lysis syndrome
- Fanconi syndrome
- Dent's disease (very rare)
Classification
Acute hyperuricosuria is a common complication of tumor lysis syndrome. This syndrome appears not to contribute to gout and to uric acid nephrolithiasis, which is evidence that these two conditions have chronic, not acute, causes.
Chronic hyperuricosuria is associated with gout and uric acid nephrolithiasis.[3]
However, both conditions can occur in the absence of hyperuricosuria. Treatment of gout with uricosuric drugs can lead to uric acid nephrolithiasis.
Treatment
If neither
urine pH more alkaline is protective.[4]
