title: [A case of congenital chloridorrhea: the diagnostic contribution of pre- and postnatal echography].
abstract: The authors describe a case of "congenital chloride diarrhea" in a preterm female infant with a profound chronic diarrhea beginning at birth. The disease lies in a defect of active intestinal Cl- transport which results in a large loss of the electrolytes and water. To prevent a reduced growth and the renal involvement an adequate replacement therapy is necessary.
