BACKGROUND: Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia (SIOD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, progressive renal insufficiency and defective cellular immunity. Podocytic infolding glomerulopathy (PIG) is a newly proposed disease entity characterized by microspheres or microtubular structures associated with podocytes infolding into the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) on electron microscopy (EM).
CASE PRESENTATION: A 4-year-old boy was admitted to our ward due to proteinuria and edema lasting 1 month. He had a short trunk and demonstrated subtle dysmorphology, with a triangular shape, a broad nasal bridge and a bulbous nasal tip. The laboratory findings were as follows: lymphocytes, 0.5 × 109/L; urine protein, 3.67 g/d; albumin, 9.8 g/L; and cholesterol, 11.72 mmol/L. Skeletal X rays showed small iliac wings, small ossification centers of the capital femoral epiphyses, shallow dysplastic acetabular fossae and mildly flattened vertebrae. The specimen for light microscopy (LM) suggested focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). EM revealed a focal thickness of the GBM with some cytoplasmic processes of podocyte infolding into the GBM. Gene sequencing showed novel compound heterozygous mutations in the SMARCAL1 gene (c.2141 + 5G > A; c.2528 + 1G > A) that were inherited from his parents. Finally, we established the diagnosis of SIOD and treated him with diuretics and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs).
CONCLUSION: The pathogenic mechanism of PIG has not been clarified. Further studies are required to understand whether gene mutations, especially those related to podocytes, contribute to the pathogenesis of podocytic infolding.
