Abstract
Bartter syndrome is a rare salt-wasting nephropathy characterized by sporadic or inherited genetic defects in transporters and channels in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle and distal tubule of Nephron leads to renal potassium wasting with hypokalemia, metabolic alkalosis, increased renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, normal blood pressure. Most of the cases have been noted in the pediatric age group and adult-onset cases are very rare. Here we report an unusual case report of Bartter's syndrome in a 52 years old male patient.
