This presentation provides an overview of kidney stones, including their incidence, types, causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment. Kidney stones, also called renal calculi, form when substances in urine crystallize and harden. The most common types are calcium and uric acid stones. Risk factors include dehydration and family history. Symptoms include flank pain and blood in the urine. Diagnosis involves tests of urine and imaging of the kidneys. Treatment focuses on pain relief, increasing fluid intake, and sometimes surgical procedures to break up or remove stones.
