Abstract

TWe described а clinical case of diagnosis of nail-patella syndrome in an 11-year-old boy. In the observation, in addition to the classical signs (changes in the osteoarticular and urinary systems), the syndrome was manifested by growth retardation, moderate protein-energy deficiency and signs of connective tissue dysplasia. The diagnosis was confirmed by whole exome sequencing, which made it possible to detect a pathogenic variant in the LMX1B gene in a heterozygous state that had not previously been described in the literature.
