Abstract:
Gitelman syndrome (GS) is a rare autosomal recessive renal tubular disorder characterized by hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, metabolic alkalosis, and hypocalciuria. It results from mutations in the SLC12A3 gene, which encodes the thiazide-sensitive sodium-chloride cotransporter (NCC) in the distal convoluted tubule. Here, we report a case of a young adult presenting with recurrent muscle cramps and fatigue, ultimately diagnosed with Gitelman syndrome.
