Abstract
The authors report their preliminary results using allopurinol as prophylactic treatment in 30 patients suffering from recurrent calcium oxalate renal stones. The results obtained were generally good, but a longer follow-up period and a larger patient population are required before definite conclusions can be drawn.Keywords
