Abstract
Enteric hyperoxaluria and primary hyperparathyroidism have been associ ated with the development of nephrolithiasis. We report a case involvi ng a patient who had hyperparathyroidism due to a parathyroid adenoma and enteric hyperoxaluria resulting from a small bowel bypass and who had severe stone-related complications. This combination of stone-gene rating factors has heretofore not been reported. The pathophysiology o f these entities is discussed.
