Autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease with a novel heterozygous missense mutation in the uromodulin gene: A case report.


ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) is a progressive chronic disease that is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. Symptoms include hyperuricemia, gout, interstitial nephritis, renal cysts, and progressive renal damage that can lead to end-stage renal disease. Mutations in the uromodulin gene (UMOD) characterize the ADTKD-UMOD clinical subtype of this disease. To date, > 100 UMOD mutations have been identified. Early diagnosis of ADTKD-UMOD is important to treat the disease, slow down disease progression, and facilitate the identification of potentially affected family members. CASE SUMMARY:We report a 40-year-old man harboring a novel heterozygous missense mutation in UMOD (c.554G>T; p. Arg185Leu). The patient had hyperuricemia, gout, and chronic kidney disease. The same mutation was detected in his daughter, aunt and cousin. CONCLUSION:A single nucleotide substitution in exon 3 of UMOD was responsible for the heterozygous missense mutation (c.554G>T, p.Arg185Leu).
