Abstract excerpt
Autosomal recessive distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) is associated with mutation in the ATP6B1 gene encoding the B1 subunit of H + -ATPase, one of the key membrane transporters for net acid excretion of α-intercalated cells of medullary collecting ducts. Sensori-neural deafness frequently accompanies this type of dRTA. We herewith describe a patient who had distinct features of dRTA with bilateral...
