Özet

Objectives: Childhood osteoporosis is often a consequence of a chronic disease or its treatment. Lysinuric protein intolerance (LPI), a rare secondary cause of the osteoporosis, is an autosomal recessive disorder with clinical features ranging from minimal protein intolerance to severe multisystemic involvement. We report a case diagnosed to have LPI using a Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) panel and evaluate the utility of reverse phenotyping. Case presentation: A fifteen-year-old-boy with an initial diagnosis of osteogenesis imperfecta, was referred due to a number of atypical findings accompanying to osteoporosis such as splenomegaly and bicytopenia. A NGS panel (TruSight One Sequencing Panel) was performed and a novel homozygous mutation of c.257G>A (p.Gly86Glu) in the SLC7A7 gene (NM_001126106.2), responsible for LPI, was detected. The diagnosis was confirmed via reverse phenotyping. Conclusions: Reverse phenotyping using a multigene panel shortens the diagnostic process. © 2021 De Gruyter. All rights reserved.
