TABLE 1.

Causes of autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD)

Clinical condition Gene(s) associated Renal manifestations Extra‐renal manifestations Diagnostic considerations in addition to family history of kidney disease
ADTKD‐UMOD UMOD Hypouricosuric hyperuricemia, CKD Gout may occur in adolescence Gout and CKD
ADTKD‐MUC1 MUC1 CKD None Specialized genetic testing. Pathogenic variants not identified by gene panels or whole exome sequencing
ADTKD‐REN REN Hyperkalemia, acidosis, hypouricosuric hyperuricemia, CKD Gout, anemia, mild hypotension Patients are prone to AKI during viral illnesses
Alagille syndrome JAG1 or NOTCH2 Vesico‐ureteral reflux, CKD Cardiac abnormalities, butterfly‐shaped thoracic vertebrae, and a prominent forehead Deep‐set eyes, broad forehead as well as other extra‐renal manifestations.
Townes‐brocks syndrome SALL1 Solitary kidney, dysplastic kidneys, vesico‐ureteral reflux, CKD Imperforate anus, dysplastic ears, thumb malformations Findings of hand and ear abnormalities, imperforate anus
HDR syndrome GATA3 CKD H(hypoparathyroidism), D(deafness) R(renal) Consider this diagnosis in patients with hypocalcemia and deafness
ADTKD‐HNF1β HNF1β Vesico‐ureteral reflux, solitary kidney, CKD

MAGIC LUCID

Hypomagnesemia, autosomal dominant, gynecologic abnormalities such as a bicornuate uterus, incomplete penetrance, cystic kidneys and other kidney malformations, liver test abnormalities, hyperuricemia and gout, CKD, intellectual disability in patients with a 17q12 deletion, and maturity onset diabetes of youth

Targeted questioning for family history of associated conditions in patients with kidney cysts
Less severe variants of ADPKD IFT140, DNAJB11 CKD, may or may not have renal cysts, interstitial kidney fibrosis May have liver cysts Consider for families with ADTKD presentation but also history of small renal cysts or polycystic kidneys
