Study design: Case Report
Abstract: Mutations in LIM homeobox transcription factor 1 beta ( LMX1B ) are associated with autosomal dominant steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. The age of presentation and clinical manifestations are quite heterogeneous and a significant proportion of patients have nail patella syndrome. We report an infant with isolated nephrotic syndrome without extrarenal manifestations associated with a sporadic heterozygous variation in LMX1B .
