Updated genetic testing of Italian patients referred with a clinical diagnosis of primary hyperoxaluria.
CONCLUSION: New genetic subtypes of PH can be hypothesized in our patients, that may be caused by mutations in other gene encoding proteins of glyoxylate metabolism. Alternatively, some kind of mutations (e.g., deletions/duplications, deep intronic splicing regulatory variants) could be missed in a few cases, similarly to other genetic diseases.
