Pediatric kidney specialists at Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital at NYU 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.
