This study concerned a Tunisian family of 52 members. We have looked for distal tubular acidosis (D.T.A.) after we had discovered that 2 members of this family suffered from nephrocalcinosis with D.T.A. Twenty six of our patients (group I) suffered from D.T.A., 17 from confirmed metabolic acidosis with low urinary pH (5.22 +/- 0.25). Patients of latest groups may present a D.T.A. with intact capacity to lower urinary pH. Our literature review revealed 27 families composed of 228 patients.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007686 Kidney Tubules, Distal The portion of renal tubule that begins from the enlarged segment of the ascending limb of the LOOP OF HENLE. It reenters the KIDNEY CORTEX and forms the convoluted segments of the distal tubule.

D009397 Nephrocalcinosis A condition characterized by calcification of the renal tissue itself. It is usually seen in distal RENAL TUBULAR ACIDOSIS with calcium deposition in the DISTAL KIDNEY TUBULES and the surrounding interstitium. Nephrocalcinosis causes RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. Nephrocalcinoses

D000141 Acidosis, Renal Tubular A group of genetic disorders of the KIDNEY TUBULES characterized by the accumulation of metabolically produced acids with elevated plasma chloride, hyperchloremic metabolic ACIDOSIS. Defective renal acidification of URINE (proximal tubules) or low renal acid excretion (distal tubules) can lead to complications such as HYPOKALEMIA, hypercalcinuria with NEPHROLITHIASIS and NEPHROCALCINOSIS, and RICKETS.
