Evaluating Natural History and Follow Up Strategies for Non-obstructive Urolithiasis in Pediatric Population

[摘要] Objective: While small non-obstructive stones in the adult population are usually observed with minimal follow-up, the same guidelines for management in the pediatric population have not been well-studied. We evaluate the clinical outcomes of small non-obstructing kidney stones in the pediatric population to better define the natural history of the disease.
