  • Title: Hyperoxaluria and urinary tract calculi after jejunoileal bypass.
    Author: Fikri E, Casella RR.
    Journal: Am J Surg; 1975 Mar; 129(3):334-6. PubMed ID: 1119699.
    Abstract:
    Five patients with jejunoileal shunt for morbid obesity in whom postshunt hyperoxaluria and recurrent urinary tract calculi developed are presented. All the stones were composed of calcium oxalate. The twenty-four hour urinary oxalic acid levels were also elevated in twenty of twenty-six patients who had had jejunoileal shunt for six months or longer. No correlation was present between urolithiasis and the degree of hyperoxaluria.
