Abstract:
The lifetime prevalence of nephrolithiasis is 15% for men, with a 5-year recurrence rate of 35% to 50% after an initial event. Although it was initially recommended to limit calcium intake in these patients, a number of studies have reported association between lower total dietary calcium intake and increased risk of incident kidney stones, and that increased calcium intake might reduce the risk of incident kidney stones. We report a 35-year-old male who presented recurrent 8-years of nephrolithiasis and urine crystal with calcium intake restriction, and had no recurrence after 5 years of follow-up after intensive calcium and vitamin D supplementation.
