• 22 years old caucasian female.• Serum creatinine – 1.9 mg/dL (routine

analyses).

• Hypertension since 16 years old.

• Hyperuricemia.

Case presentation - 1

• Several close relatives with CKD autosomal dominant, cysts and/or gout .

• Some of them were in CKD stage 5, hemodialysis or transplanted.

• Renal ultrasound:• Kidney with normal size and cortico-

medullar differentiation.• Bilateral cortico/medular cysts.

Differential diagnosis

• ADPKD

• Medullary cystic kidney disease / Familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy

A kidney biopsy was performed

LM:

Striking features in the biopsy were:• Interstitial nephritis, thickened tubular

basement membranes.

•Cytoplasmatic inclusions in tubular distal cells.

EM:

• On EM there is swelling of endoplasmic reticulum cisternae.

• With discret granular inclusions inside.

Diagnosis

• Interstitial nephritis.• Dense citoplasmatic inclusions in tubular

distal cells.• On electron microscopy - swelling of ER, due

to the accumulation of uromodulin.+

• Hyperuricemia.• Autosomal dominant inheritance.

• Uromodulin (UMOD) mutations cause autosomal dominant tubulo-interstitial nephropaties that are included in the group of cystic kidney diseases:

• familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy (FJHN)

• medullary cystic kidney disease nephropathy (MCKD

 

Familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy

Page 21: 25th European Congress Pathology August-September 2013 Lisbon

• This complex is clinically characterized by:

• alteration of urine concentration

• hyperuricemia,

• tubulo-interstitial fibrosis,

• cortico-medullar cysts

• renal failure.

• Gout and hyperuricaemia suggests FJHN

• Cysts on ultra-sound favours MCKD.

Familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy

Page 22: 25th European Congress Pathology August-September 2013 Lisbon

• Mutant uromodulin is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum and cellular trafficking is delayed, leading to reduced uromodulin secretion into urine.

• It is important that physicians consider the diagnosis of FJHN in patients with a family history of hyperuricemia, hypertension associated with renal dysfunction, even if the patient has only mild renal impairment.

• Equate diagnostic: • AD familial CRD• Interstitial nephritis• Irrelevant urinary sediment• Ø Proteinuria• Early hyperuricemia

• To confirm diagnosis:• Hystology: LM ; EM; IHC• Genetic tests

Pathologic findings in patients with UMOD

mutations:• Tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis.• Tubular basement membrane thickening and

lamellation.• Tubular or glomerular cysts (rare).• Inclusions in the cells of TALH (appear as ER

inclusions on EM).• Dense intracellular UMOD inclusions in the

cells of TALH ( by IHC).

In patients with a poor history, inactive urine sediment and evidence of interstitial nephropathy, it is mandatory to look at the cells of TALH and distal tubules searching for abnormal inclusions by LM and EM.

Its evidence implies that UMOD imunohistochemical staining must be done to confirm the composition.
