Nefrocalcinosis como manifestación de la acidosis tubular renal distal

We present a case of a woman affected by Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and distal renal tubular acidosis (DRTA) that during pregnancy presented an exacerbation of SLE together with a renal colic with spontaneous stone passage. Radiological exam revealed diffuse calcifications in both kidneys which suggests, in a context of DRTA, a nephrocalcinosis. With the stabilization of SLE and medical treatment directed to correct metabolic alterations we achieved radiological and clinical stability of lithiasic disease.
