Title: Neonatal bartter syndrome in an extremely low birth weight baby. Author: Hegde D, Mondkar J, Abdagire N. Journal: Saudi J Kidney Dis Transpl; 2017; 28(5):1162-1164. PubMed ID: 28937079.

Herein, we report a case of neonatal BS in a very premature ELBW infant.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
