Abstract:
Introduction: Inherited distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) is a rare disorder and consequently little data about treatment and long-term outcome exist.
Material and methods: We contacted paediatric and adult nephrologists through European professional organizations. Responding clinicians entered demographic, biochemical, genetic and clinical data in an online form.
Results: 333 responses with complete data were received (29 countries, female 52%, median age 11 (range 0-70 years). Mutation testing had been performed in 206 (62%), with pathogenic mutations identified in 168 (82%, divided into: ATP6V1B1 37%, ATP6V0A4 34% and SLC4A1 29%). The median (range) age at presentation was 0.5 years (0-54) and at last follow up 11.0 years (0-70.0). The median (interquartile range) prescribed dose of alkali treatment in mEq/kg/day was 1.9 (1.1-3.1), normal plasma bicarbonate levels were achieved in the majority of patients (78.4%). Adult height was only slightly below average with a mean height SDS (standard deviation score) of -0.51 (±1.04) at a median (range) age of 28 (18-70) (N=68). Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR, by Cockcroft-Gault) at last follow up in adults established the presence of chronic kidney disease stages 2-4 in 52%. Nephrocalcinosis was common (87.1%). A history of nephrolithiasis was more common with SLC4A1 mutations (45.8%) compared to the autosomal recessive forms (19.1%), p=0.002. Hearing loss was reported (35.4%) with the highest prevalence in patients with ATP6V1B1 mutation (83.1%).
Conclusions: Long term follow-up from this large cohort of patients with dRTA shows an overall favourable outcome with regards to growth but half of adult patients have decreased eGFR. Treatment adequacy as judged by plasma bicarbonate and normocalciuria is achieved in most patients.
