| Abstract: | Nephrolithiasis is a less common side effect of the antiepileptic drug topiramate. We report the case of a 3‐year‐old boy who presented to the emergency department with abdominal pain; examinations revealed a large calcification in the left kidney. Regular ultrasound examinations are recommended in children using topiramate. |
