    Author: Tiktinsky OL, Nekachalov VV.
    Journal: Eur Urol; 1978; 4(5):330-3. PubMed ID: 710462.
    Abstract:
    The etiological role of primary hyperparathyroidism in stone formation in medullary sponge kidney was studied. The necessity of carrying out special biochemical tests for primary hyperparathyroidism has been shown. The combination of two diseases in cases of stones and nephrocalcinosis is explained by the genetic nature of sponge kidney and primary hyperparathyroidism. 4 patients have been under observation; all underwent successful parathyroidectomy.
