Abstrakt: This article discusses the case of a 42-year-old Caucasian woman who was diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder called transaldolase deficiency (TALDO-D). The patient presented with glycosuria, hypouricemia, mild kidney dysfunction, and a history of liver cirrhosis and atrial septal defect. The diagnosis was confirmed through genetic testing, which revealed a homozygous likely pathogenic variant in the TALDO1 gene. The patient was treated with N-acetylcysteine and sodium bicarbonate, and her liver and kidney function remained stable during the two-year follow-up. The article highlights the importance of considering TALDO-D in cases of multisystemic disorders with renal involvement. [Extracted from the article]
