  • Title: Nephrocalcinosis in Bartter's syndrome.
    Author: Garel L, Filiatrault D, Robitaille P.
    Journal: Pediatr Nephrol; 1988 Jul; 2(3):315-7. PubMed ID: 3153033.
    Abstract:
    Nephrocalcinosis was demonstrated by computerized tomography (CT) in all five children with Bartter's syndrome followed at our institution. In three of these five patients, nephrocalcinosis was also noted on ultrasound examination. Hypercalciuria was present in only one case. The mechanism leading to renal calcification remains unclear in this disease. It is noteworthy, however, that Bartter's syndrome is associated with such a high incidence of nephrocalcinosis.
