European Association of Urology and European Society for Paediatric Urology Guidelines on Paediatric Urinary Stone Disease

The global incidence of paediatric stone disease is increasing. Contemporary surgical treatment uses minimally invasive modalities. Stone elimination should be followed by a metabolic evaluation and medical treatment should be given for any underlying metabolic abnormality detected. Follow-up with periodic imaging, mostly via ultrasonography, is mandatory because of high recurrence rates.
