Calcium oxalate uroliths are commonly called metabolic uroliths because they are sequelae of a variety of metabolic abnormalities that alter the composition of body fluids and urine. Factors incriminated in the etiopathogenesis of calcium oxalate urolithiasis include hypercalciuria, hyperoxaluria, and hyperuricosuria. The predominant type of calcium oxalate urolith encountered in dogs is the monohydrate form; however, the dihydrate form may also occur. Male dogs have been more frequently affected than female dogs. Medical therapy should be formulated with the goal of reducing urine concentration of calculogenic substances.
草酸钙尿石通常被称为代谢性尿石，因为它们是各种代谢异常的后遗症，这些异常会改变体液和尿液的成分。草酸钙尿石症发病机制中涉及的因素包括高钙尿症、高草酸尿症和高尿酸尿症。在犬类中遇到的主要草酸钙尿石类型是一水合物形式；然而，二水合物形式也可能出现。公犬比母犬更容易受到影响。药物治疗应以降低尿液中结石形成物质的浓度为目标来制定。
