Clinical and mutational spectrum of hypoparathyroidism, deafness and renal dysplasia syndrome

Abstract

We herein expand the clinical and mutational spectrum of HDR syndrome, illustrating considerable inter- and intrafamilial phenotypic variability. Diagnosis of HDR should be considered in any patient with hypoparathyroidism and deafness, whether associated with renal abnormalities or not. HDR diagnosis is established through identification of a mutation in the GATA-3 gene.
