The original report of this family included several patients with moderate renal insufficiency
in whom calcium excretion was normal [1], but with further study of a larger number of
patients it became clear that hypercalciuria was present in all affected individuals if studied
at a time when renal function was still preserved [2]. The most consistent urinary abnormality
of all, however, was excessive excretion of low-molecular-weight (LMW) proteins, in both
affected males and carrier females. Moderate
