stone. After a few months he began to have attacks of sudden severe pain and screaming, with brisk hmmaturia, interpreted as renal colic, and these caused such distress that abandonment of medical treatment was contemplated. These spasms fortunately. ceased after he had been under treatment for nine months. Several further stones were passed per urethram and after nine months these were becoming flattened; previous stones had been ovoid. When aged 21 he was able to ride in a car for the first time without having hlmaturia. At 31 sulphonamide was stopped, and from this time all heematuria ceased. He now gets a seven-hour break at night without being wakened, and urine pH remains at 8 or 9 before and at the end of this. In March 1961, after six months of treatment, stones showed an altered arrangement and possibly some diminution in size. After eighteen months stones were fewer on the right side (April 1962) and almost certainly less on the left. After two and a half years (April 1963) no stones were visible, nor can they be seen in the latest film (October 1964).
