Clinical analysis of salt-wasting in infants due to genetic aetiology
The genetic aetiologies of infants with SW were mostly CAH. However, pseudohypoaldosteronism and aldosterone synthase deficiency should also be considered in infants who present with salt-wasting syndrome. Normal or high aldosterone levels cannot be a factor by which to rule out the possibility of aldosterone synthase deficiency (ASD) in infancy. Gene analysis can be used to confirm the disorder.
