Summary

Nephronophthisis-11 (NPHP11) is an autosomal recessive kidney disease characterized histologically by renal interstitial infiltration with fibrosis, tubular atrophy with basement membrane disruption, and cyst development at the corticomedullary border. Hepatic fibrosis is also present. The clinical presentation includes polyuria, polydipsia, anemia, and growth retardation. End-stage renal disease develops in the first or second decade of life (Otto et al., 2009). For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of NPHP, see NPHP1 (256100).
