On the basis of to-day knowledge about metabolism and excretion of oxalic acid, the rationale of therapy of stone pathology is revieved. The problems of both primary and secondary oxaluria and of inhibiting factors of cristalisation are particolarly discussed.

Excretion of oxalic acid in urine was measured in 28 healthy and 97 patients with gastrointestinal diseases. We found significantly higher values in the following groups: patients after resection of parts of the small intestine, patients with sprue and other diseases with malabsorption, patients with M. Crohn of the small intestine, colitis ulcerosa and granulomatosa, patients with chronical diseases of the pancreas gland and patients with cirrhosis of the liver. In 4 patients after resection of parts of the small intestine or pancreas urolithiasis could be verified. Reduction of fat and food without ballast reduced the excretion of oxalic acid in urine. Hyperoxaluria correlied significantly with the following parameters: excretion of fat in feces, exhalation of 14CO2 in the glykocholate breath test, resorption of vit. B12 and the length of resected small intestine. This form of hyperoxaluria is caused by hyperresorption of oxalic acid from food. The mechanism of this hyperresorption is not clarified yet, an important factor seems to be ill resorption of fat.

In the female rat intoxicated with ethylene glycol the oxaluria increases with the degree of intoxication. The increase is less in the animals treated with succinimide. The comparative study of the results of the dosages made with gas-liquid-chromatography and by various colorimetric methods show that this later gives varying results and underestimates high concentrations of oxalic acid. The result is that any study based on results of dosages of urinary oxalic acid made by colorimetry must be taken with some reserve, and this on whether the oxalic lithiasis is experimentally induced or human, or whether its evolution is spontaneous or influenced by a therapeutic.

Five patients with jejunoileal shunt for morbid obesity in whom postshunt hyperoxaluria and recurrent urinary tract calculi developed are presented. All the stones were composed of calcium oxalate. The twenty-four hour urinary oxalic acid levels were also elevated in twenty of twenty-six patients who had had jejunoileal shunt for six months or longer. No correlation was present between urolithiasis and the degree of hyperoxaluria.

A case of massive ingestion of ethylene glycol is described. The clinical characteristics of this disorder such as persistent metabolic acidosis and oxaluria as well as changes in serum osmolality that may accompany ingestion of certain toxins are emphasized. The rapid clearance of ethylene glycol from the blood during hemodialysis is noted and the use of ethyl alcohol to block metabolic conversion of ethylene glycol to oxalic acid, which is also a toxin, is described. The importance of early diagnosis and therapy is stressed.

The pharmacokinetics and pathophysiology of oxalic acid in human organism are presented. In the formation of urinary calculi the level of urinary oxalic acid is important, but the knowledge of metabolism and various disturbances is the guide of a successful treatment and metaphylaxis. Therefore, the diagnostics is a prerequisite for successful dietetic and therapeutic measures as shown in absorptive hyperoxaluria.

The enteric absorption of oxalic acid with 14C-labelled oxalic acid was determined in patients with small bowel resection, jejunoileal bypass, Crohn's disease and chronic pancreatitis in comparison to the control group. Extreme hyperoxaluria were found in small bowel resections above 100 cm, after bypass operations and in ileocolitis Crohn with signs of clinical activity. Small bowel resections and relapses of Crohn's disease increase the absorption of oxalic acid. The significance of 14C-oxalic acid absorption test is the recognition of enteric hyperoxaluria.

The medical history of a 42-year-old patient with primary hyperoxaluria type I is presented. Primary hyperoxaluria was suspected after renal transplantation, when oxalate deposits were found in a biopsy of the kidney graft. Diagnosis of type I hyperoxaluria was confirmed by the finding that significantly increased amounts of glycolic acid and oxalic acid were excreted. Treatment of the patient with 500 mg pyridoxine daily resulted in a decrease of the excretion of oxalate to normal values.

This article reviews the mechanisms involved in the synthesis, absorption, excretion and transport of oxalic acid, and the factors controlling these processes in man. The clinical syndromes associated with hyperoxaluria and recurrent calcium oxalate stone disease are reviewed, including new studies that raise the possibility of a generalized oxalate transport abnormality in some patients with renal stone disease. The important role of oxalate in the determination of calcium oxalate solubility in patients with calcium oxalate stone disease is emphasized and future directions for research in the prevention of recurrent calcium oxalate stone disease are discussed.

Twenty-four-hour urinary excretion of calcium, oxalic acid, inorganic phosphorus, magnesium and citric acid was examined in fifty-nine stone formers with bladder stones. Hypercalciuria and hyperoxaluria were present in 18.6% and 44.1%, respectively, while 11.9% of patients had both abnormalities. Hypomagnesuria and hypocitraturia were present in 67.8% and 69.5%, respectively, while 45.7% had both of these abnormalities. Normal urine chemistry in respect of parameters studied was observed only in 1.7% of cases. In 15.2% one risk factor was present, while 83.1% had two or more risk factors. "Path" analysis of the urinary parameters directly related to calcium lithiasis showed that magnesium and oxalic acid have substantial influence on calcium excretion, whereas citric acid had none. The influence of phosphorus did not provide any consistent trend.
