Investigative urology, 1978•europepmc.orgThere is a paucity of literature concerning the origin of urinary stone disease. This report
uses information currently available to examine the likelihood of urinary stone disease
starting from free or fixed crystalluric particles. We conclude that stone disease in the renal
tubules and renal pelvis cannot begin on unattached (free) particles. However, in conditions
associated with stone formation, initiation of bladder stone disease on free particles seems
quite likely.
