    Nephronophthisis and medullary cystic disease in children present with polyuria and polydipsia. This study highlights their progression to chronic renal insufficiency, often with a familial link.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Nephrology
    • Genetics
    • Clinical Medicine

    Context:

    • Study conducted over 20 years at Hospital Infantil de México.
    • Focus on 11 pediatric patients with nephronophthisis or medullary cystic disease.
    • Investigated early manifestations and long-term outcomes.

    Purpose:

    • To describe the clinical and histopathologic features of nephronophthisis and medullary cystic disease in children.
    • To analyze the progression to chronic renal insufficiency.
    • To identify familial patterns.

    Summary:

    • Patients aged 3-12 years presented with polyuria, polydipsia, and impaired urinary concentration.
    • Anemia and growth delay were common, preceding renal insufficiency.
    • Histopathology revealed tubular disorders and medullary cysts; 8 cases had a familial component.
