Less common stone are composed of uric acid, cystine, or magnesium ammonium phosphate. A stone that blocks the flow of urine or causes infection must be removed either surgically or by sound or shock waves to break up the stone into pieces that can be easily eliminated from the body. The person who has a kidney stone may experience recurrence but reports suggest that with proper treatment, a recurrence may be prevented.
