Popis: The composition of the stone was determined in 24 paraplegic patients from whom 26 stones were surgically removed. Twenty-five of the 26 stones consisted of 90 per cent magnesium ammonium phosphate and 10 per cent carbonate apatite. The remaining single stone was composed of 90 per cent calcium oxalate and 10 per cent magnesium ammonium phosphate. Renal function improved significantly with the removal of the stones.
