Abstract
We report a case of primary oxalosis in a 4-year-old boy with intensive deposition of calcium oxalate monohydrate crystals in the kidney and the myocardium. In addition severe fibroplastic inflammatory reaction in form of intensive myocarditis was found. It is an extremely rare complication at this age and represents a particularly rare case of oxalosis. Disorders of oxalate metabolism are discussed in relation to extrarenal deposition of oxalate crystals.
