Pediatric kidney specialists at Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital at °µÍøTV Langone are experienced in diagnosing and treating infants and children with renal tubular disorders. This group of conditions affects the kidneys’ ability to eliminate or reabsorb water and a variety of minerals and nutrients that are essential to growth and health.
Some renal tubular disorders cause a buildup of certain minerals or nutrients. Others result in a loss of minerals, nutrients, or water. Without careful management, children with renal tubular disorders can have problems with urination, growth, muscle function, and overall health.
