Abstract

Primary hyperoxaluria type 1 is a rare genetic condition characterized by oxalate deposition in the kidneys. We report findings of an 8-month old female presenting with failure to thrive, poor oral intake, and kidney stones resulting in the diagnosis of primary hyperoxaluria type 1. The patient exhibits a unique presentation without renal failure at the time of diagnosis suggesting a previously unreported comorbidity in early stages of disease.
