Abstract

Nephrocalcinosis is a common problem faced in both paediatrics and neonates, which may need referral on to paediatric nephrology. This 15 min consultation aims to look at children of different age groups (neonates, children 1–5 years old and older children) looking particularly at history, examination, causes, initial investigations and management.
