HYPOKALEMIC PERIODIC PARALYSIS DUE TO RENAL TUBULER ASIDOSIS

Abstract

Distal tubular acidosis is a metabolic disorder which is characterized by hypokalemia, hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis, urine pH above 5.8. These findings may be accompanied by hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis, nephrolithiasis, deafness, osteomalacia, or rickets. Whereas hypokalemia is frequently seen in renal tubular acidosis weakness due to hypokalemia is rarely seen. In this article, a sporadic case who was admitted to our clinic with the complaint of weakness and diagnosed as hypokalemia secondary to distal renal tubular acidosis was presented.
