Renal Tubular Acidosis (RTA) is a medical condition where the kidneys fail to properly excrete acids into the urine, leading to a buildup of acid in the blood. This results in a condition called metabolic acidosis, which can cause symptoms like fatigue, weakness, and bone problems. RTA can be caused by genetic disorders, certain medications, or diseases affecting the kidneys. There are different types of RTA, including Type 1 (distal) and Type 2 (proximal), each with distinct causes and effects on the body. Diagnosis typically involves blood tests to measure acid levels and urine tests to assess kidney function. Treatment may include medications and dietary changes to help manage the condition.
