Abstract
Background The phenotypic and genotypic spectrum and kidney outcome of PLC epsilon 1 -related kidney disease are not well known. We attempted to study 25 genetically confirmed cases of PLC epsilon 1-related kidney disease from 11 centers to expand the clinical spectrum and to determine the relationship between phenotypic and genotypic features, kidney outcome, and the impact of treatment on outcome.
