Bacterial biofilms are intrinsic components of calcium-based kidney stones
Researchers discovered that kidney stones contain live bacteria and fungal-like biofilms buried inside. The bacteria act as a scaffolding allowing oxalates to crystalize and grow.
This solves a long-standing mystery: Why do patients sometimes get severe infections (sepsis) after stone-breaking treatment? The answer: breaking the stone releases the bacteria trapped inside.
