A 73-year-old Caucasian female with a history of obesity status post Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYG surgery presented with generalized weakness and was found to have acute kidney injury (AKI) with a creatinine peak of 9.1 mg/dL above her baseline of 1.2 mg/dL, and anemia with hemoglobin 5.7 g/dl. Kidney biopsy revealed oxalate nephropathy likely related to gastric bypass surgery four years prior.
