Renal calculi literally translates to kidney stones. These kidney stones form inside your kidneys but can affect your entire urinary tract as it travels (which includes the bladder‚ urethra‚ and ureters.) Stones form when urine is too rich with minerals and salts causing them to stick together creating a small‚ hard‚ pebble-like sediment. Kidney stones are a collection of proteins and mineral salts that aggregate into a solid crystalline structure. The stones structure is made of two phases‚ crystalline
