[Family studies in idiopathic hypercalciuria].
Increased urinary calcium excretion was found in 20 of 42 family members of 14 children with idiopathic hypercalciuria. Analysis of questionnaires on environmental factors and of pedigrees suggested that familial occurrence of absorptive hypercalciuria was mainly due to common alimentary practice. At the same time, the existence of an autosomal dominant form of renal hypercalciuria seems to be very likely, the mechanism of which is not yet understood.
