[Eye and skin manifestations of endogenous oxalosis of the protracted type (follow-up)].
The present paper reports the authors' observations in a rare case of primary hereditary oxalosis (adult type). Four years after renal function loss, calcium oxylate deposits were found in the skin and in both retinae. In spite of hemodialysis and a special diet, the deposits increased considerably during an observation period of 19 months. The skin was indurated and the genucubital articulations were immobilized. In spite of incipient circumscribed edema the retinal changes did not cause any detectable restriction of function, as the fovea was not involved and the retinal border was only slightly affected.
