Gordon's syndrome in pregnancy.
A case of Gordon's syndrome (short stature, defective dentition, hyperkalemic, hyperchloremic acidosis, and chronic hypertension) complicating pregnancy is presented. Rigid salt restriction with diuretic therapy not only controlled the hypertension but also reversed the metabolic abnormalities. This is the first case report of a pregnancy complicated by this rare syndrome.
