A child presented with a history of multiple kidney stones and end-stage kidney disease. Diagnostic evaluation demonstrated hyperoxaluria type 1. We will review the different clinical scenarios when one should suspect hyperoxaluria type 1 and how to make the diagnosis. Finally, we will discuss therapeutic options, including pyridoxine, liver transplantation and lumasiran, a recent advance in the treatment of hyperoxaluria type 1. 

Learning objectives: 

  • Describe 3 different clinical presentations of hyperoxaluria type 1. 
  • Plan the diagnostic strategy for a patient with suspected hyperoxaluria type 1. 
  • Explain how lumasiran decreases liver oxalate production in hyperoxaluria type 1.
