Life threatening hyperkalemia in a neonate with pseudo-hypoaldosteronism.
    JPMA. The Journal of the Pakistan Medical Association, 2012, Volume: 62, Issue:3

    Pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 is a rare disorder characterized by renal resistance to aldosterone which may present with a salt wasting crisis in infancy. We report a neonate with hyponatremia, severe dehydration and refractory life threatening hyperkalemia who was treated with dietary sodium chloride supplementation, potassium binding resins and fluid replacement therapy which proved to be lifesaving.
