Autosomal Dominant Tubulointerstitial Kidney Disease HNF1B With Maturity-Onset Diabetes of the Young: A Case Report With Kidney Biopsy.

Autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease subtype hepatocyte nuclear factor 1β (ADTKD-HNF1B) is a hereditary disease caused by variants of HNF1B that is characterized by a family history of tubulointerstitial nephropathy with concomitant diabetes mellitus. We report on a Japanese man in his early 40s who had ADTKD-HNF1B diagnosed. He had a reduced glomerular filtration rate, borderline diabetes mellitus, multiple small cysts in his bilateral kidneys, and pancreatic hypoplasia. He also had a family history of diabetes and kidney cystic lesions. These phenotypes represent ADTKD-HNF1B and genetic analysis revealed a missense variant of HNF1B. Kidney biopsy demonstrated not only tubulointerstitial fibrosis but also abnormal mitochondrial morphology in tubular cells, a novel finding.
