Abstract: Noncontrast computed tomography(CT) is commonly recommended for the diagnosis of suspected renal stones. In this paper, we present a case of a renal stone that cannot be detected by CT. The stone was made of n-butyl α-cyanoacrylate, a kind of surgical adhesives commonly used in partial nephrotomy.
