[The conservative treatment of phosphate calculi by citrate buffer (author's transl)].

3 patients with U-tube pyelonephrostomy were treated conservatively for multiple struvite (triple phosphate) stones in the kidney by means of constant irrigation with citrate buffer (pH 4.8). Complete dissolution of the stones was achieved in 2 patients. Conservative therapy was unsuccessful in the third case in view of narrowing of the renal calyces. Combined therapy by means of direct irrigation and oral chemotherapy is recommended.
