Summary

Nephronophthisis-20 (NPHP20) is an autosomal recessive tubulointerstitial nephritis characterized by progressive renal fibrosis resulting in end-stage renal failure. The age at onset is relatively late compared to other forms of NPHP, and patients develop end-stage renal disease in the second or third decades. Unlike most other forms of NPHP, NPHP20 does not have features of a ciliopathy and patients do not appear to have extrarenal manifestations (summary by Macia et al., 2017). For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of nephronophthisis, see NPHP1 (256100). [from OMIM]
