Effective metaphylactic treatment is available for the different types of stone. A
high urine volume achieved by sufficient intake of appropriate beverages is the most
important goal in the treatment of the pediatric stone patient. Specific dietary and,
if required, pharmacological measures tailored to the individual requirements can
prevent or reduce recurrences and decrease the burden of invasive procedures in patients
with recurrent stone disease.
