rare presentation of gitelman syndrome: a case report

Gitelman syndrome (gs), also known as familial hypokalemia-hypomagnesemia, is a rare genetic disorder. gs presents with a specific defect in kidney function, that leads to hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, metabolic alkalosis, and hypocalciuria. here, we present a 30-year-old woman without a medical history. she experienced an episode of tonic-clonic seizure, generalized muscle weakness, and severe hyponatremia as the first presentation of gs. the interesting point of this case was her late-onset presentation and the long period of her disease diagnosis; thus, it highlights the importance of considering this diagnosis.
