Dysmorphic features | Deep-set eyes Micrognathia | Deep-set eyes Retrognathia | Short palpebral fissures | Deep-set eyes | None reported | Triangular-shaped face, deep-set eyes | Petite facial features (small face and small, pointed nose) |
Liver | Cholestatic liver dysfunction at 18 months. Progressed to liver failure and transplant aged 9 y | Liver impairment from 2 years, liver biopsy showed moderate number of double-nucleated hepatocytes, some with large nuclei and nucleoli Progressed to liver failure and transplant aged 8 y | Neonatal cholestasis which resolved, then developed mild cholestatic hepatitis with normal synthetic function. Acute rise in AFP at 3 y 4 m with suspicious lesions identified on CEUS. Biopsies were consistent with HCC. The patient is undergoing transplant evaluation at time of manuscript preparation | Progressive cholestatic liver dysfunction at age 9 y Metastatic multifocal HCC diagnosed leading to death aged 11 y 9 m | Cirrhotic liver with multiple nodules on presentation, biopsy showed HCC, macro-trabecular subtype. Acute on chronic liver failure with increasing liver transaminases/coagulopathy/encephalopathy after 1st cycle of chemotherapy. Died from multi-system organ failure aged 8 y 4 m | Surveillance due to brother’s HCC showed rising AFP and liver MRI showed suspicious lesions. Biopsies confirmed moderately differentiated multifocal HCC. Received liver transplant at 10 y 11 m | Cryptogenic cirrhosis with bile duct proliferation, mild inflammation and degenerative changes, suggestive of chronic cholestatic disease. MRCP with multiple hypointense focal liver lesions, progressive in size and number (possibly dysplastic noduli) and stenosis in distal part of common hepatic duct |
Kidney | Proximal tubular dysfunction with albuminuria and hypercalciuria. Kidney function fluctuated, with intermittent episodes of acute kidney injury, progressive kidney impairment, with increasing creatinine levels and minimal response to acetyl cholinesterase inhibition. Kidney ultrasound showed small echogenic kidneys with reduced corticomedullary differentiation. Progressed to stage 5 chronic kidney disease and is under consideration for a kidney transplant | Renal tubulopathy with mild kidney impairment, with progressively increasing creatinine levels. Ultrasound showed small kidneys with nephrocalcinosis. Progressed to stage 5 chronic kidney disease and is under consideration for a kidney transplant. | Neonatal nephrocalcinosis, which resolved | Recurrent UTIs; Kidney dysfunction (Glucosuria, proteinuria, hyperphosphaturia, metabolic acidosis, and hypophosphatemia - consistent with Fanconi renotubular phenotype) | Stage 3 AKI secondary most likely to cisplatin. Consistent with nephrotoxicity but greater than expected. Kidney biopsy: Severe tubular injury with reactive focal nuclear enlargement and mild glomerular injury with no definitive glomerulonephritis. | Mild impairment Developed hypertension post-liver transplant | Normal kidney ultrasound, BP and creatinine, but low free carnitine and glucosuria, suggestive of proximal tubular kidney dysfunction; further evaluation pending |
Skin | Freckling on sun-exposed areas. Six BCCs removed in teenage years | Freckling on sun-exposed areas. Scalp BCC removed | Numerous café-au-lait macules. Severe photosensitivity | Numerous freckles Significant. photosensitivity | Malar freckling | Numerous café-au-lait macules Severe photosensitivity | Freckling on sun-exposed areas Photosensitivity Café-au-lait macules |
Ocular photosensitivity | yes | yes | yes | yes | Not reported | Not reported | yes |
Development | Mild intellectual disability, IQ 68 | Mild intellectual disability, IQ63 | Mild developmental delay | Normal | Learning difficulties ADHD | Intellectual disability | Normal |
Brain MRI | Mild cerebral atrophy with moderate cerebellar atrophy and mild brainstem atrophy (age 12 y) | Normal MRI at 5 y. MRI age 10 y showed moderate cerebellar atrophy and mild cortical atrophy | Normal MRI at 15 m | NR | NR | NR | NR |
Other | Pancreatic insufficiency Type 1 Diabetes mellitus Hypothyroidism Ovarian failure Ataxia, tremor Moderate-severe restrictive lung disease Kyphosis | Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency Ovarian failure Hypothyroidism Ataxia, tremor | Myopia Amblyopia | Steroid-induced diabetes | Motor tics, gait ataxia Post-liver transplant developed Type 1 diabetes mellitus and esophageal candidiasis | Primary ovarian insufficiency Missing permanent teeth Thenar hypoplasia Restricted range of movement in thumbs bilaterally Recurrent lower airway infections and decreased FEV1 and FVC with negative reversibility test; further evaluation pending Motor tics |
