Can kidney stones lead to uremia?

Patient's question:

Stone 2005

Doctor's answer:

Course of disease for 4 years, kidney stone 1.8CM with existing hydronephrosis. Suggestions: I recommend that you undergo ultrasonic lithotripsy immediately, as stones larger than 1CM cannot be expelled. Hydronephrosis can cause kidney damage, and after kidney damage, if the kidneys lose function, it can lead to uremia.
