  • Title: Secondary urolithiasis.
    Author: Muldoon LD, Resnick MI.
    Journal: Endocrinol Metab Clin North Am; 1990 Dec; 19(4):909-18. PubMed ID: 2081518.
    Abstract:
    Urolithiasis may be associated with a wide range of unrelated conditions that in various ways predispose to the development of urinary tract calculi. The most common such conditions are urinary tract infection, structural abnormalities of the urinary tract, drugs, and foreign bodies. Evaluation of patients must rule out other underlying metabolic disorders. Treatment must address not only the calculi but also the correction or elimination of the predisposing factors.
