Renal involvement and Strømme syndrome
2020
Stromme syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive congenital disorder involving multiple systems. Centromeric protein F (CENPF) is the causative gene of the disease, and variants are usually linked to lethal outcomes either during the foetal stage or in early life. We present a young adult with a genetic diagnosis of Stromme syndrome who-in addition to classic microcephalia, microphthalmia and intestinal atresia (apple peel-type)-experienced slow and unexpected evolution to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). In conclusion, Stromme syndrome is a complex multiorgan disease that needs multidisciplinary clinical management, and potential evolution to ESRD should be taken into account.
