We report a case of 2,8-dihydroxyadenine (DHA) urolithiasis in a 65-year-old male. He initially visited another institution because right hydronephrosis was revealed in a medical checkup. Computed tomography demonstrated radiolucent right renal stones. We performed percutaneous nephrolithotripsy and flexible transurethral lithotripsy and removed the stones successfully. An analysis of the stone fragments revealed 2,8-DHA urolithiasis. 2,8-DHA stones are relatively rare and caused by adenine phosphoribosyltransferase deficiency.
