Progressive Osteosclerosis Associated with Renal Failure Due to Primary Oxalosis A Case Report

Abstract

A 22 year old woman with Primary Oxalosis was dialysed for four years before renal transplantation. This failed acutely from graft rejection although there was evidence of oxalosis in the graft. Dialysis was continued until the time of death a year later. Over the period of dialysis progressive and extensive osteosclerosis developed. This was confirmed at autopsy to be related to widespread oxalate deposition.
