Bartter syndrome presenting in neonatal or early infancy is characterized by salt loosing tubulopathy, hypokalemia, and metabolic alkalosis. Failure to thrive is one of the most common findings in neonatal bartter syndrome. Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors are one of the therapeutic options for improving growth in these patients.We describe a case of neonatal bartter syndrome with mild ...

Review of fetal and neonatal immune cytopenias.

The fetoplacental interface plays a unique role in pathologies of the fetus and neonate, and is increasingly being recognized for effects on fetal and neonatal development that resonate into adulthood.
