Abstract
During the period 1926-1975, 94 children with urinary calculi were treated. The incidence, causation, localisation, symptomatology and diagnosis of urolithiasis in children are discussed. The therapeutic possibilities are also outlined. Particular emphasis is laid on therapeutic programmes for the prevention of recurrence in all varieties of urinary calculi, by means of which the recurrence rate in our own series was reduced to around 16 %.Keywords
