Abstract: Renal stones is a common condition affecting human beings of both genders and all age groups worldwide. Their presentation vary from unilateral loin region pain to nausea vomiting, to burning micturation or even haematuria. Patient profile of renal stone disease differs from one geographical region to another. Therefore this prospective observational study was conducted in Dr. D.Y. Patil Medical College and Hospital, Nerul, Navi Mumbai to find out patient characteristics of this region. 100 patients were included in the study. 82% patients were females most of whom were housewives. 48% patients belonged to the age group 41-60 years. Most common presentation was left sided flank pain. CT scan and USG abdomen were equally accurate in determining the size of the renal stone. Most of the females were managed conservatively whereas most males required intervention like URS or PCNL for their treatment.
