Özet
Hyperoxaluria is characterized by nephrolithasis and nephrocalcinosis caused by supersaturation of calcium oxalate in the urine. Deposits of calcium oxalate can lead to kidney damage, kidney failure, and injury to other organs. Herein, we report a case of primary hyperoxaluria which is a serious though rare condition, can be suspected on the basis of the renal features. Radiological skeletal changes, which are also rather specific, may also share some features with renal osteodystrophy.
