Inherited Renal Tubular Disorders

  • 173 Accesses

Abstract

A number of clinical syndromes have been described that have as their basic foundation a defect in some transport function of the renal tubule (Table 1). Using this paradigm, one can define conditions in which single or multiple substances are lost, in which ions or organic solutes are lost, and in which the whole body pools of these substances are altered because of excessive urinary excretion. The basic pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying these transport disorders are described elsewhere (1–4). The purpose of this chapter is to describe the current form of therapy in these conditions.
