| Popis: | Background: Inherited kidney diseases (IKDs) in children pose unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. IKD significantly impact patient quality of life, morbidity, mortality, and cost to the healthcare system. With over 150 genetic abnormalities, they account for approximately 30% of cases requiring renal replacement therapy. There is an urgent need to advance both diagnosis and treatment strategies. In this review, we present recent advances in diagnosis and treatment for facilitating personalized treatment approaches. Summary: The diagnostic landscape for IKDs have evolved significantly, emphasizing precise genetic identification and classification of these disorders. Recent advancements include the refinement of genetic testing techniques, such as whole exome sequencing, which has improved the accuracy of diagnosing specific diseases and facilitated early intervention strategies. Additionally, this review categorizes IKDs based on genetic abnormalities and clinical manifestations, enhancing understanding and management approaches. Finally, it summarizes the corresponding treatment, and lists the application of emerging therapeutic options such as gene therapy and organoids, which show promise in transforming treatment outcomes. Key Messages: This review summarizes the common types of IKDs in children, including their diagnosis and treatment advances, and provides an update on the status of gene therapy development for these disorders. |
