Análisis metabólico de los pacientes con litiasis renal. Papel de la hipocitraturia en la génesis de los cálculos de oxalato de calcio

Abstract

We have studied the biochemical abnormalities associated with the origin of recurrent renal stone disease in 29 patients. 13 healthy subjetcs were used as controls. Twenty four hours urinary excretion of citrate and oxalate was assesed specifically to know their role in predisposing to the disease.
