Abstract

Background: Kidney stone disease is a common urinary tract condition characterized by heterogeneous clinical presentations and imaging findings among patients. Evaluation of symptoms in combination with imaging modalities plays an essential role in establishing the diagnosis and guiding treatment decisions. Objectives: To describe the clinical and imaging characteristics of patients with kidney stones and to assess the association between ultrasonography KUB radiography at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital. Materials and methods:  A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on 72 patients diagnosed with kidney stones who presented for examination and treatment at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital. Results: Among the 72 participants, kidney stones were most prevalent in the 50-59-year age group, with a higher occurrence in males. The most common clinical manifestation was dull flank pain (81.9%). The detection rate of renal stones was 97.2% with KUB radiography and 100% with ultrasonography. Conclusions: Patients with kidney stones commonly present with dull flank pain. Ultrasonography provides high diagnostic value for stone detection and size assessment, whereas KUB radiography assists in determining stone morphology and location. No statistically significant association was observed between stone morphology on KUB radiography and stone size measured by ultrasonography (p > 0.05).
