  • Title: [Severe renal failure in a child].

    Abstract:
    A four-year-old male child was admitted with severe renal failure, apparently recent in onset and he was treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD). A renal biopsy showed interstitial cellular infiltration with crystals within the tubules and sclerotic glomeruli. Type I hyperoxaluria was diagnosed and the child received a liver and kidney transplant after 10 months of dialysis. Two years later, he has normal renal function, and blood and urine oxalate levels are within normal ranges.
