As of August 2006, the most kidney stones ever passed naturally was 5,704 by Canadian Donald Winfield. The largest number removed through surgery was 728, during a three-hour operation upon Mangilal Jain of India, on January 27, 2004.
Kidney stones are a common disorder of the urinary tract. Kidney stones are pieces of stone-like material that form on the walls of the kidney. They are caused by a buildup of minerals in urine. Most stones are so small that they pass through the urinary system without pain. However, a large enough stone can cause extreme pain or urinary blockage. This is very painful, and requires treatment or surgery. In the United States, about 1 million people get kidney stones every year.
