title: [Bartter's syndrome: a case report of nephrocalcinosis].
abstract: An additional case of Bartter syndrome is reported, along with its metabolic and clinical features. Emphasis is laid on the concept that an early diagnosis may improve the clinical outcome of the disease, thanks to the prompt use of indomethacin therapy which is capable of preventing hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis.
