Metabolic condition in which excessive intestinal absorption of oxalate leads to high urinary oxalate excretion. Malabsorption syndromes result in delivery of fatty acids to the colon. These bind calcium, leaving free oxalate available for absorption. Approximately 5% of patients with hyperoxaluria have an enteric cause.
