Abstract
Hyperchloremic acidosis occurs in rental tubular acidosis, as in the renal Fanconi syndrome. Hypochloremic acidosis and an increased anion gap occur, e.g., in methylmalonic and propionic acidemias. Renal tubular alkalosis signifies Bartter or Gitelman syndrome. Urinary tract calculi in children indicate the need for metabolic study.
