Abstract

A case of remarkable silent anuria caused by bilateral nephrolithiasis in the post-partum period is reported. The anuria was not associated with any kind of pain and the diagnosis was not revealed until three days postpartum when an intravenous pyelography was carried out. Differential diagnosis and management of nephrolithiasis are discussed. Ultrasound scanning is recommended as a routine procedure for all patients with signs and symptoms of renal dysfunction during pregnancy.
