A contribution to the formation mechanism of calcium oxalate urinary calculi. II. In vitro experiments concerning the theory of the formation of Whewellite and Weddellite urinary calculi
Abstract
In vitro investigations of the formation of Whewellite or Weddellite are described. By means of different precipitation models the influence of cationic minerals on the formation of Weddellite could be observed. The possible conversion of Weddellite into Whewellite in vivo is demonstrated by in vitro experiments. A theory of the formation of Weddellite or Whewellite urinary calculi is developed on the basis of the results obtained.
