DOI: 10.1136/bcr-2022-252916
Abstract: Gitelman syndrome (GS) is an autosomal recessive tubulopathy caused by dysfunction of the thiazide-sensitive sodium–chloride cotransporter, which leads to hypokalaemia, metabolic alkalosis, hypomagnesaemia and hypocalciuria. Patients with GS show varied clinical features due to hypokalaemia:… read more here.
