Abstract:The risk of enteric hyperoxaluria is significantly increased after malabsorptive bariatric surgery (MBS). However, its underlying determinants are only poorly characterized. In this case–control study, we aimed at identifying clinical and genetic factors to dissect their individual contributions to the development of post-surgical hyperoxaluria. We determined the prevalence of hyperoxaluria and nephrolithiasis after MBS by 24-h urine samples and clinical questionnaires at our obesity center. Both hyperoxaluric… Show more
