Abstract

Investigation of the excretion of Ca and phosphates, as well as measurements of plasma concentrations, has taken on momentum in recent years. This is because: a) many patients with lithiasis also have hypercalciuria. The latter can have many metabolic causes but there may also be a primary defect in the renal excretion of Ca. b) Since in recent years there has been considerable progress in the management of chronic renal failure, abnormalities of Ca and bone metabolism complicate the state of such patients. Therefore the nephrologist must not only concentrate his attention on purely renal disease, but also on wider metabolic problems.
