A Case of Severe Osteomalacia with Dent Disease Caused by a Novel Intronic Mutation of the CLCN5 gene.
Internal Medicine 2018 August 11
We present a case of Dent disease caused by a novel intronic mutation, 1348-1G>A, of the chloride voltage-gated channel 5 (CLCN5) gene. Cultured proximal tubule cells obtained from the patient showed impaired acidification of the endosome and/or lysosome, indicating that the 1348-1G>A mutation was indeed the cause of Dent disease. Although the prevalence of osteomalacia in Dent disease is low in Japan, several factors-including poor medication adherence-caused severe osteomalacia in the current case. Oral supplementation with calcium and native/active vitamin D therapy, with careful attention to medication adherence, led to the improvement of the patient's bone status.
