Renal tubular acidosis (RTA) was observed in a preterm boy shortly after birth. His mother had glaucoma and had been treated during pregnancy with oral acetazolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor. When RTA developed, acetazolamide was detected in his serum demonstrating transplacental acetazolamide passage.
