The other major calyces and the true pelvis areseen in contrast to be normal in outline. The dilatationwas the direct result of a small stone lodged in the is possible, however, that the dilatation may be par-tially the result of mechanical obstruction as well as sec-ondary infection in the calyx. 2.
