Abstract
Gordon syndrome, the association of hypertension with hyperkalemic acidosis, has been described in older children and adults. We report an affected family in which two of the members had exhibited the metabolic manifestations of the disease since infancy. Both patients responded well to thiazides. To our knowledge, these are the youngest patients with documented cases of Gordon syndrome.
