BACKGROUND: Causative mutations in the GANAB gene have been described in only 14 families, 9 diagnosed with late-onset Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) and 5 with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Liver Disease (ADPLD).
CASE: Diagnosis of ADPKD was made in a 45-year old man during screening for hernia repair. CT scan showed enlarged cystic kidneys, nephrolithiasis and normal-sized liver with multiple cysts. Hematuria, hypertension and aortic root dilatation were also documented. Renal function was normal. Molecular analysis of PKD genes disclosed a heterozygous p.R839W GANAB variant inherited from the mother. Both his elderly parents presented normal-sized bilateral cystic kidneys but normal renal function. The GANAB-ADPKD mother had no liver cysts. The father was screened for PKD-related genes and no variant was found.
GENETIC ANALYSIS: We describe a new family with late-onset ADPKD due to the p.R839W GANAB variant, previously reported in a severe ADPLD patient, requiring liver transplantation.
DISCUSSION: Since ADPKD-GANAB is an ultrarare, recently described disease, reporting further patients may help unraveling gene-related phenotype. In our patients the p.R839W GANAB variant was not related to severe ADPLD, as previously reported, but with mild ADPKD and a plethora of renal and extrarenal manifestations, usually described in PKD1/PKD2 patients. The evidence that the GANAB variant may cause both ADPKD and ADPLD of variable severity supports that renal and hepatic cystogenesis are the result of a common defective polycystin-1 pathway.
