| Abstract | Introduction: Autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) is associated with multiple gene mutations and is recognized under various names, including medullary cystic kidney disease type 2, familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy, uromodulin-associated kidney disease, and medullary cystic kidney disease type 2. A comprehensive understanding of these rare disorders can shed light on the pattern of tubulointerstitial fibrosis observed in various forms of chronic kidney disease. Case Presentation: Here, a case of a patient is presented who experienced acute kidney injury (AKI) following severe physical activity and an atypical manifestation of this genetic disorder. Typically, ADTKD leads to a gradual loss of kidney function, but the patient presented with AKI. The patient's renal function returned to normal following appropriate therapy. The patient's brother had a similar history of renal disease following physical activities, prompting suspicion of a shared genetic disorder. Conclusions: A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted, and the results revealed the presence of the mucin 1 (MUC1) mutation, confirming the diagnosis of ADTKD. This case highlights the importance of recognizing atypical presentations of genetic disorders and utilizing advanced genetic studies for accurate diagnosis and management. | en |
