juvenile cataract-microcornea-renal glucosuria syndrome — Definition
Juvenil katarakt-mikrokornea-renal glikozüri sendromu / juvenile cataract-microcornea-renal glucosuria syndrome
It is a rare genetic disease, starting in early childhood period, it is characterized by catabyte (mix blur), abnormally small cornea (microkornea) and back absorption of glucose from kidney tubules as a result of glucose excretion in the urine. Otozomal indicates a pathogenic inheritance and often leads to metabolic disorders along with vision loss. The diagnosis is subject with ophthalmological examination and urine analysis; it is important to monitor cataract surgery and kidney functions in the treatment.
Disease Definition
🔬 Disease Definition
Juvenil katarakt-mikrokornea-renal glukozüri sendromu, doğumsal veya erken çocukluk döneminde başlayan katarakt, mikrokornea (küçük kornea) ve renal glukozüri (idrarda glukoz atılımı) ile karakterize nadir bir genetik hastalıktır.
🧬 Causes & Risk Factors
Otozomal resesif kalıtım gösterir; SLC5A1 veya SLC2A2 genlerindeki mutasyonlar sorumlu tutulmaktadır.
🩺 Symptoms & Signs
Doğumsal veya juvenil katarakt, mikrokornea, renal glukozüri (kan şekeri normal iken idrarda glukoz), bazen fotofobi ve görme azlığı.
📋 Diagnostic Methods
Klinik muayene (katarakt ve mikrokornea tespiti), idrar analizi (glukozüri), genetik test (SLC5A1/SLC2A2 mutasyon analizi).
💊 Treatment Options
Katarakt cerrahisi (lens ekstraksiyonu ve intraoküler lens implantasyonu), renal glukozüri için spesifik tedavi yoktur; diyet ve sıvı dengesi takibi.
⚠️ Complications
Görme kaybı, ambliyopi, glokom, dehidratasyon riski (renal glukozüriye bağlı).
