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
