Abstract
(en) Mutation of HNFl ß gane leads to a disease with highty variable presentations, ranging from the most typical, such as renal cysts and diabetes syndrome, to less specific and at times isolated manifestations, such as urinary tract malformation, genital abnormality, and mental retardation, while including as well asymptomatic observations like pancreatic atrophy, biological cholesta-sis, and hypomagnesemia. Genetic confirmation of the disease, along with its autosomal dom-inant transmission yet with a high rate of neomutations, provides the patient with the opportunity of appropriate management and genetic counselling
