Primary hyperoxaluria with development of renal failure during infancy: Report of two cases

Journal Title: Dicle Tıp Dergisi - Year 2012, Vol 39, Issue 4

Abstract

Primary hyperoxaluria is a rare genetic disorder in glyoxylate metabolism that leads to systemic overproduction of oxalate. The disorder results in overproduction and excessive urinary excretion of oxalate, causing recurrent urolithiasis and nephrocalcinosis. As glomerular filtration rate declines due to progressive renal involvement, oxalate accumulates leading to systemic oxalosis. We, herein report two cases of primary hyperoxaluria with renal failure in infancy. Key words: Primary hyperoxaluria, renal failure, infancy
