초록

2008년 말 발생한 멜라민 파동은 멜라민에 오염된 분유를 섭취한 영아들에서 요로계 결석이 발생한 것으로부터 비롯되었다. 멜라민 관련 요로계 결석의 위험인자는 3세 미만의 나이, 많은 멜라민 섭취량과 탈수, 요산의 요 배설량 증가 등의 일반적인 요로계 결석 위험인자의 동반이다. 멜라민 관련 결석은 주 성분이 요산이므로 수분 공급과 소변 알칼리화의 보존적인 치료로 회복되는 경우가 대부분이다.

Last year, an epidemic of infantile urinary stone disease developed in China. Investigation revealed that melamine-tainted diary product caused urinary stone in these infants. Young infants were susceptible to the melamine toxicity and dehydration or other stone-prone factors aggravated the toxicity. Melamine-related urinary stones were small, multiple, and mainly composed of uric acid, thus conservative treatment of hydration and urine alkalinization worked well in majority of the patients.
