Abstract
The authors report a case of anuria due to bilateral ureteric obstruction by silica stones in a patient taking magnesium trisilicate for many years. A review of the literature concerning silica stones is presented. The diagnosis should be suggested by the clinical history and confirmed by stone analysis. The treatment of silica stones is not specific, but must be associated with withdrawal of the drug responsible.
