Abstract:
Congenital ureteropelvic junction obstruction is not an uncommon disorder with resultant hydronephrosis. With urinary stasis and infection, stone formation sometimes occurs. We recently experienced a case of congenital ureteropelvic junction obstruction with multiple (more than 500) stones. The stones are composed of uric acid, calcium, phosphate and oxalate. Herein we report this case with brief review of the literatures.
