 eMedicine - Hyperchloremic Acidosis : Article by Mahendra Agraharkar, MD, FACP
Primary metabolic acidoses can occur as a result of a marked increase in endogenous acid production (eg, lactic or keto acids), loss of bicarbonate stores through diarrhea or renal tubular wasting, or progressive accumulation of endogenous acids when excretion is impaired by renal insufficiency.
A normal AG acidosis is characterized by a lowered bicarbonate concentration, which (in the presence of a normal sodium concentration) is counterbalanced by an equivalent increase in plasma chloride concentration.
A metabolic acidosis occurring secondary to decreased renal acid secretion in the absence of marked decreases in the glomerular filtration rate and characterized by a normal AG is due to diseases that are usually grouped under the term dRTA.

A family history of HTN (particularly with a young age of onset), HTN in children, low-renin HTN, and presumed IAH are the typical situations in which this diagnosis should be considered.
Of importance to note is the fact that primary aldosteronism in and of itself is typically not associated with edema despite the volume expanded state associated with it.
Individuals with primary hyperaldosteronism (PH) may present with hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis; however, as many as 38% of patients with PH may be normokalemic at presentation.

The purpose of this case report is to emphasise that distal renal tubular acidosis may be the cause of acute flaccid quadriplegia.
Distal RTA is a clinical syndrome consisting of hypokalaemia, hyperchloraemic metabolic acidosis, inability to lower urinary pH below 5.5, nephrocalcinosis, nephrolithiasis, and additional feature includes osteomalacia or rickets.

In CRF (uremic acidosis), as in distal RTA, urinary excretion of NH and titratable acid is decreased; but, in contrast to distal RTA, urine pH is usually low, and when the amounts of excreted phosphate and NH are adjusted for the reduced GFR, both are normal or even increased (15).

 Renal Tubular Acidosis
Metabolic acidosis results, but anions such as sulfate and phosphorus are excreted normally (unlike in ESRD) and are unavailable to balance the fall in serum HCO3 that accompanies an increased serum H+.
In Type I RTA the primary defect is impaired distal tubule acidification of the urine.
HCO3 supplementation in the form of sodium or potassium citrate is the treatment of choice (1-2 meq/kg/d in 4-5 divided doses) One randomized cross-over trial of 6 (yes 6) patients comparing the two treatments head to head showed better outcomes with potassium citrate with respect to prevention of recurrent stones.
