  • Title: [Renal tubular acidosis and perception deafness. Apropos of a familial form].
    Author: Chevallier B, Toulemonde V, Negre V, Lagardere B, Gallet JP.
    Journal: Ann Pediatr (Paris); 1990 Mar; 37(3):175-7. PubMed ID: 2350143.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of primary distal tubular acidosis with sensorineural deafness in two children from the same family. Failure to thrive at age one month was the first manifestation. Administration of bicarbonates allowed rapid resumption of normal growth. Inheritance is recessive and autosomal, contrary to isolated distal tubular acidosis. Early detection of deafness, a common feature that can easily be treated by hearing aids, should avoid delays in development of speech.
