Bilateral lower pole renal calculi and a huge burden of calculi within the mid right ureter - Steinstrasse
Case Discussion
This is an extreme example of steinstrasse - literally meaning a street of stones in German. It looks just like a cobblestone path. The ureter has numerous small calculi one on top of the other to give this appearance.
