  • Title: Dissolution of bilateral staghorn cystine renal calculi.
    Author: Van Dugteren GR, Wiggelinkhuizen J.
    Journal: Arch Dis Child; 1979 Oct; 54(10):795-8. PubMed ID: 41490.
    Abstract:
    Bilateral staghorn renal calculi in a 7-year-old girl with cystinuria were dissolved over a period of 6 months, using a high fluid intake, urinary alkalinisation, and D-penicillamine. Even in children with extensive cystine urolithiasis, medical management may avert the need for surgery.
