Because we synthesized the two most common kidney stones‚ calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate‚ we will focus on those two in the discussion of formation‚ treatment‚ and prevention.

This means‚ when urine is supersaturated with calcium and oxalate ion that type of stone is more likely to form. This supersaturation results from the ionic activity
