title: [Urolithiasis in cystic fibrosis].
abstract: The prevalence of urolithiasis is higher in patients with cystic fibrosis than in the normal population. We report on a case of a 12-year-old child with cystic fibrosis who presented flank pain which revealed a calcium oxalate urolithiasis. Evolution was satisfactory with pharmacological and dietary treatment. The principal mechanisms of lithogenesis in patients with cystic fibrosis are described and preventive treatment is discussed.
