Urologic and obstetric significance of urinary calculi in pregnancy.
Thirteen patients whose pregnancies were complicated by urinary calculi are presented. Difficulties of diagnosis and treatment with reference to obstetric outcome were assessed. In this series the evidence shows that diagnosis with a high index of suspicion is not difficult. There are apparently no ill effects on the pregnancy from the calculus nor from any necessary surgical management.
