• Dent's disease, as diagnosed in this case, is an X-linked form of proximal renal tubular disease; it commonly causes hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis, and eventually, renal failure.

• Less attention has been paid to potential abnormalities of calcium handling by the renal epithelial cells themselves, and to the association of nephrocalcinosis and nephrolithiasis with abnormal urinary acidification.

  Academic text (1996)

• Defects in urine concentration and acidification processes are similar to those found in patients with medullary nephrocalcinosis from many causes, but the acidification defect is usually less pronounced than that in primary dRTA.
