Prenatal and Postnatal Management of Hyperprostaglandin E Syndrome After Genetic Diagnosis From Amniocytes

Abstract: Genetic diagnosis of HPS and subsequent prenatal indomethacin therapy seems to have a beneficial effect on the natural course of HPS, especially progression of polyhydramnios; therefore, extreme prematurity could be prevented. Also, postnatally the early diagnosis allows the effective water and electrolyte substitution before severe volume depletion.

“…3,10,11,34 Our patients, however, did not benefit significantly from indomethacin with respect to better growth. Six of 8 patients required supplementary calories by either gastrostomy feeding tube or long-term PPN to ensure that body weight increased at least to the low-normal limit.…”

“…9,10 Recently, it was demonstrated that prenatal indomethacin treatment could stop additional progression of polyhydramnios, thereby preventing extreme prematurity. 11 The molecular basis of HPS/aBS is heterogeneous. Mutations in either the furosemide-sensitive Na-K2Cl cotransporter (NKCC2) 5,12 or the renal outermedullary potassium channel (ROMK) 4,13 have been found in the majority of HPS/aBS patients.…”

“…Fetal poliüri, hidramniyoza yol açar, fazla sıvı da prematüre doğuma neden olur. Prenatal dönemde indometazin kullanımı; prematüre doğumu, polihidramniyozu ve aynı zamanda neonatal dönem-de nefrokalsinosis gelişimini de önler (15,16) . Yenidoğanda masif poliüri, hayatı tehdit eden sıvı kaybı atakları ve gelişme geriliği görülebilir (17) .…”

“…Excessive PGE 2 activity may lead to severe water and electrolyte disorders, especially in premature babies. Clinically, infants with hyperprostaglandin E syndrome (HPS) are present with the typical pattern of impaired tubular reabsorption in the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop, including salt wasting, isosthenuric, or hyposthenuric polyuria, and hypercalciuria with subsequent nephrocalcinosis (9,27,37). Therefore, it is important to limit the content of PGE 2 in immature kidneys, which is likely accomplished by the high activity of renal 15-PGDH during the postnatal period.…”
