Renal tubular acidosis in the Silver-Russell syndrome

Several patients with the Silver‐Russell syndrome (SRS) attending our Genetics Clinic were diagnosed as having persistent metabolic acidosis. Since this abnormality has not been reported previously in the SRS, we reexamined 33 SRS patients to evaluate the frequency and type of metabolic acidosis, th...

Zusammenfassung:Several patients with the Silver‐Russell syndrome (SRS) attending our Genetics Clinic were diagnosed as having persistent metabolic acidosis. Since this abnormality has not been reported previously in the SRS, we reexamined 33 SRS patients to evaluate the frequency and type of metabolic acidosis, the clinical and laboratory findings, and the growth pattern in SRS patients with and without metabolic acidosis. Among them, 14 had a consistent decrease in HCO 3− levels. Renal studies in acidotic patients showed urine pH of 5.8 and 24 h urine calcium of
