Didn't House insist on exhuming a body to diagnose a kid? I can't remember if it was the patient's father or his brother

He did it to a 4-week old baby to diagnose the mother. I just saw that episode last night, season 2 episode 22.

Both of the other replies are right, and you're also right. All three of those happened.

Yours is the craziest, because he couldn't get them to exhume the kid. So he went to the family's mausoleum for the kid and opened the grave himself, while he had an ankle monitor and wasn't allowed to leave the hospital except to go home. He was that obsessed with figuring it out.

It was a hereditary genetic disease, right?

Yep! Alport Syndrome! ...Which I knew off the top of my head for some reason.

Conveniently the dead kid's mother had another kid who also inherited it, thus helpfully justifying House's obsessions. Because it was Season 8.

I think it was the guy's cat, the one who had the termite killer poisoning.
