Abstract
Introduction and importance
Primary hyperoxaluria (PH) is a metabolic condition that leads to oxalate production, resulting in kidney failure and oxalate nephropathy. Posttransplant mobilization of oxalate poses a risk of recurrence. This case emphasizes the importance of measures in cases of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) with unknown origins.
Case presentation
A 53-year-old man with a history of hypothyroidism, recurring kidney stones, and a family background of renal disease and stomach cancer presented with high blood pressure and elevated creatinine levels (2 mg/dL). A subsequent renal biopsy confirmed PH1. Despite initiating hemodialysis, his kidney function deteriorated, necessitating a liver and kidney transplant. Following the transplant, the patient developed lymph node enlargement. Experienced humoral rejection, leading to the resumption of hemodialysis.
Clinical discussion
The case discussion highlights the treatment complexities associated with PH1, emphasizing the importance of detection and vigilant monitoring post transplantation and multidisciplinary care for managing complications effectively.
Conclusion
Early detection, thorough diagnostics, and customized posttransplant care play roles in managing hyperoxaluria. Future research should focus on enhancing methods, refining transplantation techniques, and developing strategies to prevent and manage complications effectively.
期刊介绍:
To provide to national and regional audiences experiences unique to them or confirming of broader concepts originating in large controlled trials. All aspects of organ, tissue and cell transplantation clinically and experimentally. Transplantation Reports will provide in-depth representation of emerging preclinical, impactful and clinical experiences. -Original basic or clinical science articles that represent initial limited experiences as preliminary reports. -Clinical trials of therapies previously well documented in large trials but now tested in limited, special, ethnic or clinically unique patient populations. -Case studies that confirm prior reports but have occurred in patients displaying unique clinical characteristics such as ethnicities or rarely associated co-morbidities. Transplantation Reports offers these benefits: -Fast and fair peer review -Rapid, article-based publication -Unrivalled visibility and exposure for your research -Immediate, free and permanent access to your paper on Science Direct -Immediately citable using the article DOI
