Renal Tubular Acidosis Type 2 and 3: Proximal Renal Tubular Acidosis (pRTA) and Combined Proximal and Distal RTA in Children
Renal tubular acidosis (RTA) type 2, also called proximal renal tubular acidosis, is characterized by hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis due to impaired reabsorption of bicarbonate (HCO3) in proximal tubules. It can be due to isolated defect or part of generalized defect (Fanconi syndrome). Rickets/Osteomalacia is more common and treatment is usually difficult. RTA type 3 is designated when comb...
متن کاملUnraveling the molecular pathogenesis of isolated proximal renal tubular acidosis.
Proximal renal tubular acidosis (pRTA) results from an impairment of bicarbonate (HCO(3)(-)) reabsorption in the renal proximal tubules and is characterized by a decreased renal HCO(3)(-) threshold. Proximal RTA most commonly occurs in association with multiple defects of proximal tubular transport (renal Fanconi syndrome). Although much more rare, pRTA may occur without other functional defect...
متن کاملRenal tubular acidosis.
Renal tubular acidosis is a relatively uncommon clinical syndrome characterized by the inability of the kidney to adequately excrete hydrogen ions, retain adequate bicarbonate, or both. This syndrome can be categorized into 3 separate disorders, each with unique clinical characteristics. Although an uncommon finding, prompt and inexpensive tests can lead to early intervention and subsequently r...
متن کاملRenal tubular acidosis.
In the past decade major advances in our understanding of renal tubular hydrogen ion secretion and bicarbonate reabsorption have provided new insight into the pathophysiology of renal tubular acidosis. Thus "fragment to fragment clings" and the number of disorders categorized within the syndrome grows, until we have come to know and name four types, with many subtypes. We hope this new perspect...
متن کاملPROLONGED PARALYSIS AS AN UNUSUAL PRESENTATION OF RENAL TUBULAR ACIDOSIS
A case of renal tubular acidosis (RTA) who had gradual onset of paralysis of lower extremities and persisted for a long time is presented. His primary workups were mistaken for muscular dystrophy. Eventually, an abdominal ultrasonography revealed small stones in both of the kidneys and his workup for the stones were in favor of distal renal tubular acidosis and advanced rickets with hypokal...
