The tinkle tale.
The clinical features of urinary calculi are well documented. Several textbooks state the features of passage of a stone per urethra including severe dysuria, straining and strangury. We report on three patients in whom attention was drawn to the passage of a stone by the sound made as the stone hit the bedpan during urination.
