Abstract
Medullary sponge kidney (MSK), was first described in 1948. The prevalence of the disorder is unknown but is said to occur in 0.5% of all unselected excretory urograms and is often clinically disregarded. However, we and others have found MSK to be a frequent association in patients with recurrent calcium calculi (RCRC) particularly in females (F). Although 3 large series of MSK and RCRC have been published1, 2, 3, more data are required, particularly with respect to stone pathogenesis4. This study was designed to address these issues.
