Pathogenic variants in KIF11 are linked to microcephaly with or without chorioretinopathy, lymphedema, or impaired intellectual development (MCLMR). To our knowledge, renal phenotypes have not been described in the literature in association with KIF11-related disorders. This study is a case report of two probands with heterozygous pathogenic variants in KIF11 who presented with the common clinical features of MCLMR but also had additional renal involvement not previously reported as associated phenotypes of MCLMR, elucidating phenotypic expansion of this syndrome.
KIF11基因的致病性变异与伴有或不伴有脉络膜视网膜病变、淋巴水肿或智力发育受损的小头畸形(MCLMR)相关。据我们所知,文献中尚未描述与KIF11相关疾病相关的肾脏表型。本研究报告了两名携带KIF11基因杂合致病性变异的先证者,他们具有MCLMR的常见临床特征,但也有先前未报告为MCLMR相关表型的额外肾脏受累情况,阐明了该综合征的表型扩展。
