Abstract

In the presence of obstructive uropathy, the normal defense mechanisms preventing urinary tract infections (UTI) are compromised, and accordingly, the incidence of pyelonephritis is increased significantly. However, most patients remain without symptoms. Serious electrolyte imbalance is uncommon. Rarely, obstructive uropathy may result in tubular damage or a decrease in nephron number. Tubular damage can result in renal tubular unresponsiveness to aldosterone. This has been called transient pseudohypoaldesteronism (PHA) and clinical manifestations have reported hyponatremia, hyperkalemia and metabolic acidosis. These findings may resemble congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Therefore, CAH is often an initial presumptive diagnosis, resulting in inappropriate therapy. We report the case of a 29-day-old boy with vesicoureteral reflux and pyelonephritis complicated by pseudohypoaldosteronism leading to excessive salt wasting. ABSTRACT (tr):

Özet

Obstrüktif üropatinin varlığında, normal defans mekanizmalarının bozulması pyelonefrit sıklığını belirgin olarak arttırmaktadır. Ancak çoğu hasta semptomsuzdur ve ciddi elektrolit bozukluğu sık değildir. Nadiren obstrüktif üropati tübüler harabiyete ve nefron sayısında azalmaya neden olabilir ve tubulus harabiyeti aldosterona yanıtsızlıkla sonuçlanabilir. Geçici psödohipoaldosteronizm olarak tanımlanan bu klinik tabloda hiponatremi, hiperkalemi ve metabolik asidoz rapor edilmiştir. Bu bulgular konjenital adrenal hiperplaziyi andırabilir ve ilk tanı sıklıkla konjenital adrenal hiperplazi olup uygunsuz tedaviyle sonuçlanabilmektedir. Burada vezikoüreteral reflu ve pyelonefrite bağlı psödohipoaldosteronizm gelişen 29 günlük erkek olgu sunulmuştur
