Primary hyperoxaluria type 1 is a rare inherited disorder caused by abnormal liver glyoxalate metabolism leading to overproduction of oxalate, progressive kidney disease, and systemic oxalosis. While the disorder typically presents with nephrocalcinosis, recurrent nephrolithiasis, and/or early chronic kidney disease, the diagnosis is occasionally missed until it recurs after kidney transplant. Allograft outcomes in these cases are typically very poor, often with early graft loss. Here we present the case of a child diagnosed with primary hyperoxaluria type 1 after kidney transplant who was able to maintain kidney function, thanks to aggressive renal replacement therapy as well as initiation of a new targeted therapy for this disease. This case highlights the importance of having a high index of suspicion for primary hyperoxaluria in patients with chronic kidney disease and nephrocalcinosis/nephrolithiasis or with end stage kidney disease of uncertain etiology, as initiating therapies early on may prevent poor outcomes.
