Malabsorptive states are frequently associated with increased urinary oxalate excretion. The authors describe a 10-year-old girl with steatorrhea, hyperoxaluria, and a renal calculus in a single functioning kidney. Successful management of steatorrhea corrected both the chronic diarrhea and
Severe renal oxalosis was diagnosed in 4 male and 1 female purebred Beefmaster calves from herds in southeastern and northwestern United States. Clinical signs included weakness, anorexia, lethargy, alopecia, dehydration, and diarrhea. Results of serum biochemical analysis for 2 calves were
Secondary oxalosis causing acute kidney injury (AKI) has been widely reported in native kidneys but its occurrence in allograft kidneys is relatively uncommon. We present three patients with acute kidney allograft dysfunction secondary to tubular oxalate microcrystal deposits confirmed on allograft
A 58-year-old female patient admitted to hospital for advanced renal failure had a 40 years' history of Crohn's disease and had undergone ileocecal resection. Nevertheless, chronic diarrhea persisted. Subsequently calcium oxalate stones in the urine were repeatedly observed. Progressive renal
Vitamin C is a precursor of oxalate and promoter of its absorption, potentially causing hyperoxaluria. Malabsorption causes Calcium (Ca) chelation with fatty acids, producing enteric hyperoxaluria.
METHODS
A 73-year-old man with both risk factors was hospitalized with serum creatinine of 8.4 mg/dL
A 5-month-old female infant who had chronic diarrhea and acute renal failure was referred to Chulalongkorn Hospital for further investigation and management. Laboratory investigation revealed elevated blood urea nitrogen and creatinine level, hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, and hyponatremia.
Calcium oxalate (CaOx) deposition in the renal allograft is an under recognized and important cause of acute tubular injury and early allograft dysfunction. We present a case of late transplant dysfunction due to acute oxalate nephropathy. The patient presented with diarrhea and deteriorating graft
Primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1) is a rare metabolic disorder caused by a defect in glyoxylate metabolism attributable to low or absent activity of the liver-specific peroxisomal enzyme alanine/glyoxylate aminotransferase. This defect leads to enhanced conversion of glyoxylate to poorly soluble
Hyperoxaluria after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is generally attributed to fat malabsorption. If hyperoxaluria is indeed caused by fat malabsorption, magnitudes of hyperoxaluria and steatorrhea should correlate. Severely obese patients, prior to bypass, ingest excess dietary fat that can produce
Patients with ileal disease have increased absorption of dietary oxalate, hyperoxaluria, and an increased incidence of nephrolithiasis. Patients with steatorrhea of varying etiologies also have hyperoxaluria. To determine whether steatorrhea per se is associated with nephrolithiasis, we reviewed the
The goal of this study was to investigate metabolic risk factors in pediatric stone formers in an emerging economy. A prospective, data collection enrolled 250 children age <1-15 years at our center. Risk factors were evaluated by gender and in age groups <1-5, 6-10 and 11-15 years. Patients were
Intestinal diseases may cause the formation of urinary stones through changes in the metabolism of oxalate, calcium, and uric acid. The oxalate that is excreted into urine comes from the catabolism of ascorbic acid and some amino acids or from intestinal absorption of food oxalate. Calcium is
The current concepts of normal fat absorption and the entero-hepatic circulation of bile acids are being reviewed with emphasis on the steps which are clinically important. Based on an understanding of normal physiology, diseases associated with steatorrhea can be classified according to
BACKGROUND
Calcium oxalate nephropathy is rare in current practice. It was a common complication during jejunoileal bypass, but much less seen in modern gastric bypass surgery for morbid obesity. The major cause of it is enteric hyperoxaluria.
METHODS
We report on a patient here with acute kidney
Acute oxalate nephropathy has been associated with chronic diarrheal illness and only one case has been reported due to acute diarrhea secondary to Clostridium difficile colitis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the second case report of acute oxalate nephropathy due to
