The uric acid deposits, which are the next most common,occur only in very acid urine, as a yellowish-pink, red, or brick-dust red crystalline sediment. The crystals are often of largesize, and the deposit is then known as 7rd sand ox gravel. They URINARY DEPOSITS. 675 usually occur as rhombic prisms, or long oval plates with acuteangles, and are often mixed, forming rosettes. The various kindsare seen in Fig. 323. They are soluble in alkalies. The causes Fig. 322. Fig.
