Calcium oxalate (CaOx) uroliths are one of the most common urolith types in dogs, cats, and humans. Many factors predispose animals to CaOx uroliths, including breed, old age, obesity, male sex, being neutered, and certain diseases. Because there are no effective strategies for medical dissolution of these uroliths, management should focus on physical removal (by surgical or nonsurgical methods) and prevention, especially in patients with recurring uroliths, high-risk breeds, and animals with predisposing diseases. Prevention focuses on diet modification, primarily to increase water intake, and the appropriate use or avoidance of specific medications.
草酸钙（CaOx）尿路结石是犬、猫和人类中最常见的尿路结石类型之一。许多因素使动物易患草酸钙尿路结石，包括品种、老龄、肥胖、雄性、绝育状态以及某些疾病。由于目前尚无有效的药物溶解这些尿路结石的策略，治疗应侧重于物理清除（通过手术或非手术方法）和预防，特别是对于复发性尿路结石患者、高危品种以及患有易感疾病的动物。预防措施主要集中在饮食调整上，主要目的是增加饮水量，以及合理使用或避免特定药物。
