Distal renal tubular acidosis (autosomal dominant)

Autosomal dominant renal tubular acidosis is caused by mutations of the SLC4A1 gene. The characteristic symptom is a mild metabolic acidosis caused by tubular dysfunction.

Test Strategy

Before starting molecular testing you have to assess the type of renal tubular acidosis.

Symptoms

Hypercalciuria
Hypercalciuria in autosomal dominant distal renal tubular acidosis is an occasional not a typical finding.

Systematic

Renal tubular acidosis
Combined renal tubular acidosis 3 with osteopetrosis 3
Distal renal tubular acidosis (autosomal dominant)
SLC4A1
Distal renal tubular acidosis (autosomal recessive)
Distal renal tubular acidosis with deafness (autosomal recessive)
Proximal renal tubular acidosis
Renal tubular acidosis with arthrogryposis
