Persistent Hypoglycemia with Polycystic Kidneys: A Rare Combination - A Case Report.

We present the case of an infant referred to our NICU born at 39 weeks' gestation with persistent hypoglycemia with elevated insulin levels (HI) requiring diazoxide to maintain normoglycemia. Additionally, polycystic kidney disease (PKD) was detected by ultrasound. Molecular genetic testing revealed pathogenic variants in the gene, i.e., a variant in the promoter region and a missense variant in the coding region. The precoding variant was recently described in 11 European families with similar phenotypes, either in a homozygous state or as compound heterozygous with a pathogenic coding variant. In neonates with HI associated with PKD, this rare recessive disorder should be considered.
