Abstract
Doctor Jaenicke, based on clinical observations of prof. Wienternitz and Unverricht, over the action of birch leaves, as a good diuretic, non-irritating agent for the kidneys, began to take them in patients with kidney stones. The author came to such conviction that birch leaves are not only a good diuretic, but also dissolve kidney stones. The author has been using birch leaves for already 4 years, and at the same time, in such patients, where the reliability of the diagnosis, in addition, was confirmed by many authoritative surgeons and investigated by X-rays. A detailed history of the disease of one of such cases is given by the author in the specified article.
