We present the case of an infant referred to our NICU born at 39 weeks’ gestation with persistent hypoglycemia with elevated insulin levels (HI) requiring diazoxide to maintain normoglycemia. Additionally, polycystic kidney disease (PKD) was detected by ultrasound. Molecular genetic testing revealed pathogenic variants in the <i>PMM2</i>gene, i.e., a variant in the promoter region and a missense variant in the coding region. The precoding variant was recently described in 11 European families with similar phenotypes, either in a homozygous state or as compound heterozygous with a pathogenic coding variant. In neonates with HI associated with PKD, this rare recessive disorder should be considered.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
