Title: | Chronic hypokalaemia in a hypertensive patient |
Creators Name: | Elitok, S. and Luft, F.C. |
Abstract: | Hypokalaemia in hypertensive patients is a 'red flag' bringing to mind various classic secondary and genetic causes related to both hypokalaemia and hypertension. We encountered a patient who had an unusual cause for his disturbance that, to our knowledge, has not been described in hypertensive patients. |
