Medical Conditions - Calcification In Kidney

Kidney calcification is due to excessive calcium and mineral build-up in the kidney due to high calcium, phosphate, and oxalate levels in the circulation and urine. Sarcoidosis, vitamin D supplementation, hyperparathyroidism, and low blood potassium levels are the causative factors. Untreated chronic nephrocalcinosis may be associated with kidney failure. Treatment aims to prevent further mineral deposition and to relieve the symptoms.
