Other symbol(s) CAKUT4
Main clinical features
  • autonomic bladder dysfunction with impaired pupillary reflex and secondary congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract,

  • renal ultrasound demonstrated bilateral hydronephrosis, a thickened bladder wall, and a large post-void residual
  • also profound autonomic failure, with symptoms overlapping those found in families with truncating CHRNA3 mutations, including bladder dysfunction, impaired pupillary light reflexes, and orthostatic hypotension
  • Genetic determination autosomal recessive
