Tiny stones cause boulder-sized pain for deployed servicemembers

BALAD AIR BASE, Iraq -- Col. (Dr.) John Mansfield, 332nd Expeditionary Medical Operations Squadron urologist, performs surgery to remove kidney stones from a patient here March 26. In the most severe cases of kidney stone disease, stones that are too large to be broken up with laser treatment, must be physically removed from the kidneys.
