Autosomal dominant hypocalcaemia type 1 is rare and clinically challenging. Altered calcium handling may lead to progressive nephrocalcinosis and chronic kidney disease. We present the first known report of a child with ADH1 caused by the genetic variant c.2528C > A; p.Ala843Glu, who successfully underwent kidney transplantation without simultaneous parathyroid gland transplant aged 11yrs. We outline our reasoning for this and our management strategy for maintaining calcium homeostasis post-transplant over a 4-year period.
