J R Parikh et al. Abdom Imaging. 1994 Sep-Oct.

Abstract

Nephrocalcinosis has been reported in patients treated with acetazolamide and other agents, such as furosemide or bicarbonate. We present a case of nephrocalcinosis induced solely by acetazolamide and diagnosed radiographically. Possible mechanisms of pathogenesis are reviewed.
