Senior-Loken syndrome in an Iranian family
Senior-Loken syndrome is a rare entity that combines familial juvenile nephro-nophthisis with retinal dystrophy. Herein, we report Senior-Loken syndrome in six members of an Iranian family with progressive blindness and renal failure since childhood. Although, this syn-drome was reported from other parts of the world, report of six members of one family with this syndrome is rare. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report from Iran

Senior Loken Syndrome
The etiology of ESRD under the age of 20 almost is the inherited kidney disease or congenital disorders of urinary tract. NPHP/ medullary cystic disease includes a group of tubulo- genetic kidney disorders. NPHP is the cause of 15-20% ESRD in children and adolescents. The extra renal manifestations include: oculomotor Apraxia(Cogan syndrome), mental retardation, retinitis pigmentosa, (Senior- Loken syndrome) liver fibrosis and skeletal disorders. Recently, on the basis of genetics and type of the protein product of these mutations, NPHP is divided to 6 types. The presented case is a 17 year old boy with end stage renal disease that he has been managed with hemodialysis. As the patient has polyuria and disturbance in vision from childhood and on physical examination he had retinitis pigmentosa and horizontal nystagmus with a history of chronic kidney disease in his 12 years old sister, and familial marriage between his parents, we suggest NPHP4 for the patient
Genetic testing for Senior-Loken syndrome
Abstract
We studied the scientific literature and disease guidelines in order to summarize the clinical utility of genetic testing for Senior- Loken syndrome (SLSN). SLSN is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, has a prevalence of one in a million, and is caused by variations in CEP164, CEP290, INVS, IQCB1, NPHP1, NPHP3, NPHP4, SDCCAG8, TRAF3IP1 and WDR19 genes. Clinical diagnosis is based on kidney (urine analysis, abdominal ultrasound, kidney function) and eye assessment (visual acuity test, fundus examination, refraction defects, color testing and electroretinography). The genetic test is useful for confirming diagnosis, and for differential diagnosis, couple risk assessment and access to clinical trials.</jats:p
