Abstract
DESPITE its antiquity, the mechanism of urinary calculus formation remains obscure, but recent studies have provided a better understanding of the many factors that are involved and some of these are considered in the present review. Studies in this department have been concerned mainly with stones consisting of calcium oxalate or a mixture of calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate. These are the commonest types of stones in Western countries (Murphy and Pyrah, I962; Prien, I963).
