ADPKD, autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.
Sequencing was performed by ion semiconductor and/or Sanger sequencing, and all reported mutations were confirmed by Sanger sequencing.
The patient’s family history included CAKUT, reduced renal function, diabetes, and elevated liver enzymes in the patient’s father.
At the first presentation to the nephrologist, the patient’s HNF1β score would have been 7; on reevaluation 13 years later, the HNF1β score had progressed to 13.
The patient’s family history included gout and hypomagnesemia in the patient’s father.
