A member asked:
In what fraction of cases are renal stones bilateral? why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Majority: Most people with renal stones have them bilaterally, because the same sources of calcium are present in both kidneys. Generally, though, you do not pass one at the same time bilaterally.
