Kedney matrix stones are a rare form of calculi. Flank pain and urinary tract
infections (UTI) are the most common presentations of matrix calculi. The
diagnosis is usually made at surgery, but some preoperative radiographic findings
might be suggestive. Open surgery was the method of choice for treatment.
However, combination of ureterorenoscopy and percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL)
was found to be safe and effective. We report a rare case of renal and ureteral
matrix stones that were diagnosed and treated by open surgery. We also describe
its clinical, radiological and therapeutic features through a review of the
literature.
