mtniharika - 01-09-10 05:08 Hypercalciuria is defined by a 24-hour urinary calcium excretion more than 150 mg in an adult female, more than 200 mg in an adult male, or more than 4 mg/kg/d in a child who weighs less than 60 kg. In infants younger than 3 months, 5 mg/kg/d is considered the upper limit of normal for calcium excretion.
