Overview

Bartter syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder that often presents in childhood and may be associated with stunted growth, mental retardation, hypokalemia, metabolic alkalosis, polyuria and polydipsia, normal to increased urinary calcium excretion, normal or mildly decreased serum magnesium concentration, hypophosphatemia and hypercalciuria.

History and Symptoms

Bartter syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder that often presents in childhood and may be associated with the following clinical features:

The clinical manifestations are much less pronounced in heterozygotes.

  • Researchers induced mutations in the loop diuretic-sensitive sodium-potassium- chloride cotransporter (NKCC2). They found a normal range of blood pressure and fluid balance among heterozygous mice.[6]
