Still others have kidneys that do not correctly regulate the amount of calcium they release into their urine. There are some people who form calcium oxalate stones as a result of too much oxalate in the urine ...

Des concrétions ou des cristaux, dénommés calculs rénaux ou calculs néphrétiques, se forment parfois dans un rein. Elles résultent d'une combinaison de calcium, d'acide urique et d'autres substances présentes dans l'urine. De nombreuses personnes évacuent les petits calculs rénaux sans aucun symptôme, mais les calculs plus gros peuvent être très douloureux lorsqu'ils se déplacent dans l'uretère, pour atteindre la vessie et sortir du corps.
