title: Efficacy of captopril therapy in cystinuria lithiasis. A case report.
abstract: We present a 7-year old girl with severe urolithiasis due to cystinouria. Medical treatment after the surgical procedures was initiated with intensive hydration, urine alkalinisation and captopril. We discuss the therapeutic efficacy of captopril in resolving lithiasis as well as in preventing new stone formation.
