Primary hyperoxaluria is a group of inherited metabolic diseases characterized by increased formation of calcium-oxalate stones in kidneys with development of nephrolithiasis and chronic kidney disease. The article summarizes the modern information on the diagnostics and treatment of the disorder depending on genotype of the patient (AGXT, GRHPR, HOGA1 genes). The evaluation of the molecular genetic aetiology of the kidney stone disease contributes to the personalized treatment and prevention of the pathology in the patients and their relatives.
