Abstract

This is a retrospective study of 5 cases of giant ureteric calculi. Majority of them
presented with loin pain and haematuria. All of them had normal renal function,
haemoglobin, serum calcium,serum phosphorus, 24 hour urinary calcium and serum
electrolytes. All had intravenous urography which revealed prompt visualisation and
no distal obstruction. Owing to large size these are best managed by UL either open
or laparoscopic. If the kidney on affected side is non functioning, nephroureterectomy
is indicated. Calcium oxalate was commonest constituent.
