Abstract Introduction Bartter syndrome is a rare genetically inherited salt-wasting disorder that is typically seen in children and neonates with association to many morbidities. We present a case of Bartter syndrome in an adult who showed excellent response to treatment. Case presentation The patient was a 23-year-old male presenting with polyuria, polydipsia, nocturia, and fatigue, especially within the lower limbs for the last two years but no history of vomiting. He was clinically diagnosed with Bartter syndrome and received conservative management with a good response. Conclusion Bartter syndrome is a rare disease. It has a wide range of clinical presentations. It can be diagnosed clinically and confirmed by genetic testing. Conservative management has a good clinical outcome.
