Abstract

The lithiasis pathology is frequent and recurrent, it most often affects the upper urinary tract, several types of stones exist. The most frequent are calcium oxalate stones (70%).

In this case a bilateral renal lithiasis with a left coralliform lithiasis the surgeon in front of a diagnostic and therapeutic dilemma.

We report a case of a 39-year-old patient with no particular pathological history who presented bilateral lithiasis (with a 10cm left staghorn microlithiasis) responsible for major bilateral ureter hydronephrosis, who progressed well under surgical treatment. We discuss the modalities of management in front of staghorn lithiasis.
