Combined kidney liver transplant is the preferred transplant option for most patients with primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1) given that it removes the hepatic source of oxalate production and improves renal allograft survival. However, PH1 patients homozygous for the G170R mutation can develop normal urine oxalate levels with pyridoxine therapy and may be candidates for kidney alone transplant. We examined the efficacy of pyridoxine therapy following kidney alone transplant in five patients homozygous for G170R transplanted between 9/1999 and 7/2013. All patients were maintained on pyridoxine post-transplant. Median age at transplant was 39 years (range 33–67 years). Median follow-up post-transplant was 8.5 years (range 0.2–13.9 years). At the end of follow-up, 4 grafts were functioning. One graft failed 13.9 years post-transplant due to recurrent oxalate nephropathy following an acute medical illness. After tissue oxalate stores had cleared, post-transplant urine oxalate levels were < 0.5 mmol/24 hr the majority of times checked. Calcium oxalate crystals were noted in only 3/13 allograft biopsies. This series suggests that a subgroup of PH1 patients demonstrate sustained response to pyridoxine therapy following kidney alone transplant. Therefore, pyridoxine combined with kidney alone transplantation should be considered for PH1 patients with a homozygous G170R mutation.
