As the levels of cystine in the urine increase, it forms cystine crystals, resulting in kidney stones. Cystine crystals form hexagonal-shaped crystals that can be viewed upon microscopic analysis of the urine. The other amino acids that are not reabsorbed do not create crystals in urine.The overall prevalence of cystinuria is approximately 1 in 7,000 neonates (from 1 in 2,500 neonates in Libyan Jews to 1 in 100,000 among Swedes). Pathophysiology
Cystinuria is characterized by the inadequate reabsorption of cystine in the proximal convoluted tubules after the filtering of the amino acids by the kidneys glomeruli, thus resulting in an excessive concentration of this amino acid in the urine. Cystine may precipitate out of the urine, if the urine is neutral or acidic, and form crystals or stones in the kidneys, ureters, or bladder. It is one of several inborn errors of metabolism included in the Garrods tetrad. The disease is attributed to deficiency in transport and metabolism of amino acids. Diagnosis
Blood: Routine hemogram along with blood sugar, urea, and creatinine. Urine: For cystine crystals, and casts. The most specific test is the cyanide–nitroprusside test
Ultrasound/CT scan to reveal if a stone is present. Genetic analysis to determine which mutation associated with the disease may be present. Currently genotyping is not available in the United States but might be available in Spain, Italy, UK, Germany and Russia (by private companies in Germany and Russia).Regular X-rays often fail to show the cystine stones, however they can be visualized in the diagnostic procedure  that is called intravenous pyelogram (IVP).
