Primary hyperoxaluria is a rare autosomal recessive disorder, characterised by precipitation of insoluble oxalate crystals in the joints, kidneys, heart, eyes, skin, nerves, and bone marrow. The patients of primary oxaluria usually present with renal stone/nephrocalcinosis, and isolated kidney transplantation should not be done in these patients. We present a case report of 31-year lady with ac...

nephrocalcinosis is defined as calcium deposition in the renal interstitium. one of the major causes of neonatal nephrocalcinosis is the use of calcium and phosphor supplements for premature neonates. this study aims at assessing the effects of calcium and phosphor supplementation in neonatal nephrocalcinosis by renal ultrasonography. in this randomized controlled trial, 37 premature neonates w...

Objectives The survival of pediatric patients with short bowel syndrome has improved in recent years. Enteric hyperoxaluria as a pathophysiological consequence been hardly addressed so far. It can be associated nephrolithiasis, nephrocalcinosis or even renal insufficiency. We assessed the prevalence and its pathogenic consequences retrospective single centre study over last 12 Methods conducted...

Although renal calcium crystal deposits (nephrocalcinosis) may occur in acute phosphate poisoning as well as type 1 renal tubular acidosis (RTA), hyperphosphatemic hypocalcemia is common in the former while normocalcemic hypokalemia is typical in the latter. Here, as a unique coexistence of these two seperated clinical entities, we report a 30-yr-old woman presenting with carpal spasm related t...

UNLABELLED Thirty-five patients (23 males and 12 females), age 35 +/- 13 years old, presenting either idiopathic calcium nephrolithiasis, nephrocalcinosis or mild renal failure with idiopathic calcium nephrolithiasis were selected for the analysis of low molecular weight proteinuria and the possible mutations occurrence in the chloride channel gene CLCN5. The urinary ratio of beta2-microglobuli...
