Reevaluation of urinary calcium excretion as a criterion for surgery in primary hyperparathyroidism: a study on nephrolithiasis risk [PDF]

Endocrine Journal
The guideline for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) recommends surgery for female patients with 24-hour urinary calcium levels >250 mg/day and male patients >300 mg/day, due to their risk for nephrolithiasis.

Primary Hyperaldosteronism As A Risk Factor For Recurrent Nephrolithiasis

Kidney Research and Clinical Practice, 2012
Primary hyperaldosteronism typically presents as hypertension, hypokalemia, and metabolic alkalosis. Several previous reports note an association between primary hyperaldosteronism and nephrolithiasis with secondary hyperparathyroidism.
