Abstract

This review of 69 infants (up to two years old) with full preoperative workup, all with urinary calculus disease, covers a fifteen-year period and shows a high incidence of this disease in Turkey when compared with other studies in the literature. It also presents cases of urolithiasis in infancy which, to date, have not been treated as a separate phenomenon.
