Abstract
The article provides data on the histological and morphometric examination of the kidneys of chickens in the spontaneous course of urolithiasis. With urolithiasis in chickens, a sharp increase in organ size is macroscopically noted. Histological examination revealed that the process of urates sedimentation in the parenchyma of the kidneys of birds begins at the age of 126 days. In this case, calcium urates take the form of basophilic crystal structures. Urolithiasis in hens and replacement chickens leads to severe atrophy of the vascular glomeruli and tubules and, as a result, to sclerotization of the organ.
