Abstract
According to a number of researchers, pathological changes in the structures of the renal papilla play a key role in the pathogenesis of urolithiasis. According to the results of existing studies, destructive processes in collagen are characterized by a change in the length, thickness of the fibers and their orientation in space. Collagen disorganization has enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms. The aim of the study was to study the frequency and features of localization of Randall's plaques and morphological study of the state of connective tissue and the basement membrane of the epithelium of the renal tubules of different levels in urolithiasis. Microscopically studied preparations of 29 biopsies of renal tissue obtained from patients with fibro-uretero-pyeloscopy (11), percutaneous nephrolitholapaxy (18) and preparations obtained at 20 autopsies in cases without visible renal pathology. Histological preparations were stained with hematoxylin and eosin to determine the state of connective tissue fibers using Van Gieson, Mallory, Schiff-reagent, alcian blue, and Kos for calcifications. The results of the study show that the morphological signs of mucoid swelling of the connective tissue and basement membrane of the epithelium of the renal tubules of different levels in combination with the formation of microcalcifications require further study of the possible role of disorganization of the connective tissue of the renal stroma in the initiation of stone formation in the kidneys.

Форникальный аппарат почки, представленный проксимальным отделом каждой чашечки, ее форникса и соответствующего сосочка с прилегающей к ним нервной, сосудистой и лимфатической системами, имеет особое значение в гармоничной деятельности верхних мочевых путей.
