A 37-year old female was admitted with a complaint of gross hematuria. Intravenous pyelography and retrograde pyelography showed right non-functioning kidney with a radiolucent stone in the ureter. Computerized tomographic scan revealed right hydronephrosis and ureteral stone. Ureterolithotomy was performed. Infrared spectrometric analysis of the stone revealed a 2,8-dihydroxyadenine calculus. The adenine phosphoribosyltransferase activity in red blood cells was partially deficient. After the operation the patient has been given 100 mg/day of allopurinol and is on a low purine diet. There have been no signs of recurrence.

We report a case of 2, 8-dihydroxyadenine (2, 8-DHA) urolithiasis. A 39-year-old female was referred to our hospital with the complaint of right flank pain. An X-ray examination showed right hydronephrosis. On May 1986, right percutaneous nephrolithotripsy was performed. Infrared spectroanalysis revealed 2, 8-DHA and calcium phosphate mixed calculus. The adenine phosphoribosyltransferase activity in erythrocytes was partially deficient. Since the operation, 300 mg/day of allopurinol has been administered, and there have been no signs of recurrence.
