[Renal gravel formation inducing renal insufficiency as a side-effect of ceftriaxon].

Ceftriaxon is a third-generation cephalosporin with a wide and powerful spectrum of antimicrobal activity. It is often used in pediatrics. The authors draw the attention to the side-effect of the medicament, which might cause renal gravel-formation. They report a case of a 9-years old boy, who suffered from ceftriaxone-associated cholelithiasis and hephrolithiasis, which induced anuria and uraemia.
