Abstract
Heredity hypouricemia is caused by renal hypouricemia or xanthinuria. Xanthinuria is divided into type 1 with deficiency of xanthine dehydrogenase and type 2 with xanthine dehydrogenase and aldehyde oxidase deficiency. We report a case of xanthinuria type 1 that developed with kidney failure. Hemodialysis was done for him, but kidney function was not improved, so a kidney transplant was performed for him. His serum uric acid was 0.1 mg/dl before and after transplantation.
