title: Hyperoxaluria After Renal Transplantation.
abstract: 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 acute graft dysfunction due to oxaluria with no history of nephrolithiasis/nephrocalcinosis prior to renal transplantation.
