Whole exome sequencing detected novel likely pathogenic variants in LRP2 gene in 2 patients presenting with hearing and vision loss, and the Dent disease (DD) classical renal phenotype, that is, low molecular weight proteinuria (LMWP), hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis/nephrolithiasis. We propose that a subset of patients presenting as DD may represent unrecognized cases or mild forms of Donnai-Barrow/facio-oculo-acustico-renal (DB/FOAR) syndrome or be on the phenotypic continuum between the 2 conditions.
全外显子测序在 2 名表现为听力和视力丧失以及 Dent 病(DD)经典肾表型(即低分子量蛋白尿(LMWP)、高钙尿症和肾钙质沉着症/肾结石)的患者中发现了 LRP2 基因的新型可能致病性变异。我们提出,一部分表现为 DD 的患者可能代表未被识别的病例或 Donnai-Barrow/facio-oculo-acustico-renal(DB/FOAR)综合征的轻度形式,或者是这两种疾病之间的表型连续体。
