Abstract excerpt
Primary hyperoxaluria type 1 is caused by mutations in the alanine-glyoxylate aminotransferase (AGXT) gene. In cases in which no mutation was identified, linkage analysis can be used to confirm or exclude the diagnosis in other siblings. We present a family in which a sibling of the index case predicted to have primary hyperoxaluria type 1 by means of linkage analysis failed to show hyperoxaluria during the...
