Summary of Case Reports of Bartter Syndrome (BS) Complicated by Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS)

^*The patient was diagnosed with BS with severe mental and growth retardation at age 10. However, he had a history of premature birth (28 weeks of gestation with a birth weight of 1,300 g) and there was no clear information regarding his perinatal and neonatal periods available.

^†Genetic study of SLC12A1, KCNJ1 and CLCNKB revealed no mutation, and she had bilateral sensorineural hearing loss.

^‡Two of eleven glomeruli showed FSGS characterized by cellular lesions such as the collapse of the glomerular capillaries and adhesions of the glomerular tuft with swollen and vacuolated podocytes

^§Use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs prior to the onset of proteinuria
