- Abstract: Background: Eighty-five percent of infants with congenital nephrotic syndrome (CNS) and 66% with infantile NS (INS) are likely to have a monogenic etiology. There exists a significant genetic variability between different regions and ethnic groups. This study aimed to determine the genetic defects in children with CNS and INS by establishing a registry in western India. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, pediatric nephrologists from 13 private and government institutions shared relevant clinical data and details of the genetic evaluation of children presenting with NS within the first year of life. Results: The median age at presentation was 9 months (range 1–23, IQR 3–13 months), history of consanguinity between parents existed in 14 patients (34%), family history of similar illness in 6 (15%), and extra-renal manifestations in 17 (41%). Twenty-five (61%) were confirmed to have a monogenic etiology. NPHS1 gene was the most implicated (9/25) followed by PLCE1 (5/25). There were 12 variants of uncertain significance (VUS) involving 10 genes (10/25, 40%), and no definite genetic abnormality was found in 4 (25%). A re-analysis of these VUS attempted 2–3 years later facilitated reclassification of 7/12 (58%); increasing the diagnostic yield from 61 to 68.2%. Conclusions: Consistent with worldwide data, variants in NPHS1 gene were the most common cause of NS in infancy; however, PLCE1 was implicated more frequently in our cohort. NUP93 and COL4A3 were reported in early onset NS for the first time. Reclassification of VUS should be attempted, if feasible, since it may lead to a useful revision of diagnosis.
