Kidney stone

Good morning..my wife had a partial kidney removal 30 months but developed a staghorn kidney stone approx 18 months after. After a long battle with the NHS this year we opted for a private route for consultation and from CT scans the surgeon decided on immediate surgery as he found s clip left in the kidney which had caused calcification and the offending stone. We wondered if anyone else had experienced a similar issue 

Regards
