Abstract:
A patient with atopic dermatitis who presented muscular weakness of lower extrimities and tetany due to severe hypokalemia, hypocalcemia and hypomagnemia was described. The hypokalemia and hypomagnemia were caused by pseudo-Bartter's syndrome due to persistent dehydration, and the hypocalcemia was caused by pseudohypoparathyroidism due to hypomagnemia. The persistent dehydration was considered to be resulted from long-term and long-time bathing. Thus, adequate supply of water and electrolytes may be necessary in long-term balneotherapy.
