Abstract
The relationships between urolithiasis, ureterolithiasis and blood groups have been analysed. The examinations of 1451 women and 1611 men confirmed the occurrence of statistical relationships of blood groups A, AB and 0 and those diseases. They did not occur in blood group B.
Urolithiasis incidence rate was similar in men and women. The highest morbidity rate fell on the fourth decade of life in women and on the fifth decade in men.
