One hundred and thirteen urinary stones fron spinal cord injured patients contain urates in 65,5% of cases. In a prospective study of 21 paraplegic patients, an early increase of uricosuria was found as well as a late and moderate elevation of uricemia. The origin of these changes of the metabolism of uric acid is discussed. Therapeutic consequences from these results are studied.
