Adult-Onset Bartter Syndrome Presenting as Refractory Hypokalemia and Metabolic Alkalosis: A Case Report. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Bartter syndrome (BS) is a rare autosomal recessive salt‐wasting tubulopathy characterized by hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis, hyperreninemia, and hyperaldosteronism without hypertension. It usually presents in childhood; however, adult‐onset cases are infrequent and often misdiagnosed.

Reninoma: An Occult Etiology of Hypertension Requiring Repeated Diagnostic Evaluation and Managed by Tumor Enucleation: A Case Report. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Reninoma may be undetectable on initial imaging, and repeat diagnostic evaluation is essential when biochemical suspicion persists. Intraoperative ultrasonography can enable precise localization, allowing minimally invasive tumor enucleation instead of partial or radical nephrectomy in appropriately selected patients.
