Excerpt

To the Editor: Congenital Anomalies of Kidney and Urinary Tract syndrome with or without Hearing loss, abnormal Ears or Developmental delay (CAKUTHED) is characterized by facial dysmorphology and external ear anomalies in addition to renal lesions [1]. This disease is characterized with haploinsufficiency of the PBX-1 (Pre-B cell leukemia homeobox) gene, which may be involved in its etiology [2]. Its incidence is unclear, and no case report on it has been published in Japan. …
