In this episode I talk with Dr. David Sas, a Pediatric Nephrologist from the Mayo Clinic, about kids and kidney stones, with a discussion of stone diagnosis, management, and complications. We also discuss pyelonephritis, dysfunctional voiding, and long-term management and recurrence prevention after the initial diagnosis of all of these issues.
Spoiler alert: Dr. Sas mentions briefly in this episode the work he has done to develop a CURE for a rare genetic cause of renal stones, and his team at Mayo has a special interest in the evaluation of kids with kidney stones for genetic and underlying causes that can be managed to prevent future stones and kidney injury. If you have a patient with renal stones who needs assessment, I have listed his contact information and department website here:
