Staghorn cystine stone in a 72-year-old recurrent calcium stone former.
[cystinuria]
This
case
deals
with
the
first
diagnosis
of
Type
B
cystinuria
with
cystine
nephrolithiasis
in
a
72
-
year
-old
male
.
Cystinuria
is
an
inherited
disease
that
consists
of
congenital
abnormalities
of
renal
and
intestinal
transport
of
dibasic
amino
acids
.
It
often
leads
to
frequent
recurrent
stone
formation
.
Cystine
stones
most
frequently
occur
in
the
1
st
through
3rd
decades
of
life
with
a
decreased
incidence
in
old
age
.
This
case
shows
that
the
first
diagnosis
of
cystinuria
may
be
made
even
in
the
8
th
decade
,
without
any
family
history
,
and
in
a
patient
with
a
history
of
recurrent
calcium
stone
disease
.
Therefore
,
the
chance
of
cystinuria
must
be
always
considered
,
even
in
older
calcium
stone
formers
.
