مستخلص: Alport syndrome (AS) is a hereditary disease of the glomerular basement membrane in the kidney characterized by progressive renal failure, sensorineural deafness, and/or ocular abnormalities. In contrast to the well-known X-linked phenotype, very little is known about the autosomal dominant form. Rare autosomal forms of AS have been described with mutations in COL4A3 and COL4A4 at chromosome region 2q35-q37, but there have been no descriptions of dominant forms due to a mutation in COL4A4.
