A Case of Type 1 RTA in an Adult Associated With Sjogrens Syndrome Presenting As Periodic Paralysis Mimic
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2019, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
RTA type 1 is a defect in the distal acidification in kidneys resulting from impaired H+ secretion in the distal tubule, it may be genetic or acquired. Patients with distal RTA have low ammonia secretion rates. We present a case of acquired distal RTA secondary to sjogrens syndrome who had multiple episodes of pure motor quadriparesis with positive such history in her sibling (sister) and was a close mimic of hypokalemic periodic paralysis.
