His kidney function worsened, with creatinine raised from 1.11 mg/dL (98 µmol/L) to 3.98 mg/dL (350.3 µmol/L), normal 0.4–1.0 mg/dL (35–91 µmol). He had hypercalcemia, serum calcium level 3.11 (normal 2.1–2.6) mmol/L, and metabolic alkalosis, HCO3 48.7 (normal 21–26) mmol/L. His kidney function returned to its base level and his calcium and bicarbonate levels normalized with adjustment of calcium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate doses. We report this case to highlight an unusual complication and to review the literature on milk alkali syndrome which is rare in children.Keywords: milk alkali syndrome, infants, chronic kidney disease | ||
