Biomineralogy of Kidney Stones Crystallization

Abstract

One of the unsolved mysteries is why kidney stones are formed, for example, in one renal pelvis, while other pelvises are not subject to the process of biomineralization, i.e. crystallization on biological media. Stones also crystallize in the ureters and bladder. The study presents details of the crystallization of kidney stones in a place that mineralogy calls the crystallization center. This publication discusses the method of crystallization of stones and their structure
