ABSTRACT
Transient antenatal Bartter syndrome due to melanoma-associated antigen D2 gene mutation is a newly reported type of Bartter syndrome. Its characteristics include an X-linked inheritance pattern, early-onset hydramnios, and spontaneous disappearance of symptoms after childbirth. To date, there have been no reports of prenatally diagnosed cases. We herein present the case of a preterm male born to a mother with early-onset hydramnios and a family history of X-linked idiopathic hydramnios. We suspected melanoma-associated antigen D2 gene mutation and performed direct sequencing. As a result, we were able to prenatally establish a diagnosis of transient Bartter syndrome due to a melanoma-associated antigen D2 gene mutation.
