We describe an HPRT deficiency in a 2-month-old child who presented acute renal failure and gout with normal mental and motor development for age. The patient was diagnosed with Lesch-Nyhan disease and showed a new mutation, a deletion of two bases in exon 3 of the HPRT gene (c.269-270delAT).
我们描述了一名2个月大的儿童,其患有次黄嘌呤-鸟嘌呤磷酸核糖转移酶(HPRT)缺乏症,表现为急性肾衰竭和痛风,但其智力和运动发育与其年龄相符。该患者被诊断为莱施-奈恩病,并显示出一种新的突变,即HPRT基因外显子3中两个碱基的缺失(c.269-270delAT)。
