Incomplete Distal Renal Tubular Acidosis with Nephrocalcinosis
We report the case of a female patient with incomplete distal renal tubular acidosis with nephrocalcinosis. She was admitted to the hospital because of acute pyelonephritis. Imaging studies showed dual medullary nephrocalcinosis. Subsequent evaluations revealed hypokalemia, hypocalcemia, hypercalciuria, and hypocitraturia with normal acid-base status. A modified tubular acidification test with ...
متن کاملPrevalence of distal renal tubular acidosis in primary Sjögren's syndrome.
OBJECTIVES Our objectives were to analyse the prevalence of distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) in primary SS (pSS) and to compare a novel urinary acidification test with furosemide and fludrocortisone (FF) with the gold standard ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) to detect dRTA. METHODS Urinary acidification was assessed in 57 pSS patients using NH4Cl and FF. A urinary acidification defect was defin...
متن کاملMedullary nephrocalcinosis, distal renal tubular acidosis and polycythaemia in a patient with nephrotic syndrome
BACKGROUND Medullary nephrocalcinosis and distal renal tubular acidosis are closely associated and each can lead to the other. These clinical entities are rare in patients with nephrotic syndrome and polycythaemia is an unusual finding in such patients. We describe the presence of medullary nephrocalcinosis, distal renal tubular acidosis and polycythaemia in a patient with nephrotic syndrome du...
متن کاملAcidose tubulaire rénale distale primitive Primary distal renal tubular acidosis
Renal tubular acidosis are forms of metabolic acidosis characterized by an impairment of urinary acidification due to a lack of urine excretion of protons or loss of bicarbonates. Primary distal renal acidosis (dRTA) is characterized by hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis due to failure in proton excretion, variably severe nephrocalcinosis and/or nephrolithiasis associated with hypercalciuria and...
متن کاملDistal renal tubular acidosis with hereditary spherocytosis.
Hereditary spherocytosis (HS) and distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA), although distinct entities, share the same protein i.e. the anion exchanger1 (AE1) protein. Despite this, their coexistence has been rarely reported. We hereby describe the largest family to date with co-existence of dRTA and HS and discuss the molecular basis for the co-inheritance of these conditions.
