Published: January 2017

We report a 76 years-old female patient who consults for left flank pain and inflammatory biology, due to the presence of an egg-shaped 5 cm diameter macro-lithiasis. Because of the presence of a Proteus bacteriuria, the patient receives a 7 days levofloxacin treatment, before a laparoscopic resection of the kidney stone is performed. The analysis reveals a struvite lithiasis with a disorganized radial-section nuclear structure (type IVc).
