There is preserved in Trinity College, Cambridge, a stone weighing 34 ounces taken from the bladder of the wife of Thomas Raisin, by Gutteridge, a surgeon of Norwich.

This stone was afterward sent to King Charles II for inspection.

In his "Journey to Paris" Dr.Lister said that he saw a stone which weighed 51 ounces; it had been taken from one of the religious brothers in June, 1690, and placed in the Hopital de la Charite.

It was said that the monk died after the operation.

There is a record of a calculus taken from the bladder of an individual living in Aberdeen.
