title: Multiple urethral calculi in children: report of two cases.
abstract: Multiple urethral calculi are rarely found in children. We report herein two unusual cases of children found to have multiple urethral calculi. In one, the calculi formed proximal to a stricture and in the other they formed within a diverticulum. Both patients required urethrotomy for removal of the calculi. A unique cause of urethral stricture is also described in case 1.
