ABSTRACT
Glomerulocystic kidney disease (GCKD) is a rare form of cystic renal disease. We report a four-week-old baby girl born to non-consanguineous parents; their antenatal third-trimester ultrasound showed severe oligohydramnios that required amnioinfusion. Post-natal ultrasound examination showed few tiny cysts (2-3mm) involving the cortices in bilateral kidneys. Kidney biopsy showed dilatation of Bowman's space and cystically dilated glomeruli, suggestive of GCKD. Whole exome sequencing revealed no pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant.
