Sažetak
The frequency and the dramatic symptomatology of renal stone disease focused great medical attention from very early on in history. Many medical authors have reported a high incidence of urolithiasis in the territory of Croatia. Beside surgical approach to urolithiasis, a significant number of preserved Croatian recipes from 15th to 19th century concerned the problem of lithiasis. Most of them were preserved in the collections of folk recipes, but also in the official medical manuscripts, or in other various sources such as marginalia. They were written in all Croatian dialects, mainly in Latin script but sometimes also in Glagolitic script. In official as well as vernacular recipe collections, very similar elements recommended for curing, were identified. In this paper a small recipe collection against kidney stones written in 1745 by Franciscan priest Ivan Čeperić is singled out. It reflects not only all elements of old monastic medical tradition but is also an excellent model for identification of various influences in the evolution of therapeutical approaches to urolithiasis.
