title: [Acquired Gitelman syndrome associated with Sjögren's syndrome and scleroderma].
abstract: Tubulopathy can complicate autoimmune diseases. It is usually a distal tubular acidosis, but Fanconi syndrome or Bartter syndrome has been exceptionally reported. We report a case of acquired Gitelman syndrome in a 32-year-old male who also presented diffuse scleroderma autoimmune thyroiditis, and Sjögren's syndrome. Only three cases of Sjögren syndrome associated with Gitelman syndrome have been previously reported in literature. The absence of other cases in the family and absence of mutation SLC12A3 emphasise the relation between autoimmune disease and this tubulopathy.
