History of Urinary Stone Disease

Urinary stones have affected mankind since time immemorial.


It would be fascinating to know that the first evidence of urinary stones dates back to 4800 B.C., when a bladder stone was discovered in an Egyptian mummy at E1 Amrah Egypt. Information about urinary stone disease can also be found in ancient Sanskrit literature in India.
