Calcium metabolism and homeostasis are highly regulated and maintained within a narrow physiologic range. An understanding of its metabolism and various disorders in absorption and excretion is essential to the understanding of nephrolithiasis. In this chapter, an overview of calcium metabolism in the nephron is presented. The role of diuretic effects on calcium transport is reviewed. Hormonal effects on calcium metabolism are discussed. Various medical treatment options for calcium nephrolithiasis are also presented along with guidelines for therapy. © 2011 Springer-Verlag London Limited.
