Pseudohypoaldosteronism of Infancy

Here, we present the case of a 6-week-old baby girl who presented with mild hyponatraemia and dehydration with a background of severe failure to thrive. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Method: We present five cases, presenting in infancy with sepsis and significant hyponatraemia, where underlying obstructive uropathy was subsequently discovered. [abstracts.eurospe.org]

We report four infants who presented with profound hyponatremia accompanied by urinary tract infection, ultimately leading to the diagnosis of transient pseudohypoaldosteronism. [ijpeonline.biomedcentral.com]

  • Weight Gain

    Despite high calorie feeds the infant weight gain and hyponatraemia did not improve until salt supplements were commenced. Subsequently, the karyotype was reported as 46,XX,inv (4)(q31.2q35). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    A boy who had a minor lung puncture at birth died at the age of four weeks after slow weight gain, failure to thrive, vomiting and poor urinary flow. [tidsskriftet.no]

    Symptoms can include poor weight gain, failure to thrive, vomiting or dehydration and onset is typically in the newborn period or infancy. [hopkinsmedicine.org]

    Further FISH analysis showed findings consistent with disruption of the NR3C2 gene by the proximal breakpoint (4q31.23) of the inversion. There was no evidence of deletion or duplication at or near the breakpoint. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    FISH can identify microdeletions, with a detection rate of 5-10% [38,75]. [docksci.com]

Further workup showed serum aldosterone level of 2174 mg/dL (10–160 mg/dL), PRA (pre renal activity) of 103.9 ng/mL/hr (0.5–1.19 mg/mL), serum renin level of 193998 ng/dL/hr (0.29–3.7 ng/dL/hr), carbon dioxide of 19 mmol/L (normal levels in brackets). [ijcasereportsandimages.com]

  • Pyuria

    Urinary tract infection was confirmed by pyuria. Organisms cultured included coliforms. One case was complicated by infective urinary ascites which grew Citrobacter koseri. [abstracts.eurospe.org]

    A urinalysis revealed pyuria, and she was treated with amoxicillin; the urine eventually grew Klebsiella pneumoniae. There was no history of fever. [ijpeonline.biomedcentral.com]

    Analysis of urine collected by suprapubic puncture showed microscopic hematuria, pyuria, negative nitrites, proteinuria (150 mg/dL), pH 6, specific gravity 1010, sodium 21 mEq/L, and potassium 27.3 mEq/L, with an osmolarity of 228 mOsmol/kg. [elsevier.es]
