Pseudohypoaldosteronism
Pseudohypoaldosteronism (PHA) is a condition that mimics hypoaldosteronism.[1] However, the condition is due to a failure of response to aldosterone, and levels of aldosterone are actually elevated, due to a lack of feedback inhibition.
This syndrome was first described by Cheek and Perry in 1958.[2] Later pediatric endocrinologist Aaron Hanukoglu reported that there are two independent forms of PHA with different inheritance patterns: Renal form with autosomal dominant inheritance exhibiting salt loss mainly from the kidneys, and multi-system form with autosomal recessive form exhibiting salt loss from kidney, lung, and sweat and salivary glands.[3] [4]
Treatment of severe forms of PHA requires relatively large amounts of sodium chloride.[5]
These conditions also involve hyperkalemia.[6]
