Mondo Description An inherited giant platelet disorder with a complex phenotype characterized by congenital thrombocytopenia and possible subsequent manifestations of sensorineural hearing loss, presenile cataracts, elevation of liver enzymes, and/or progressive nephropathy often leading to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Epstein syndrome, Fechtner syndrome, May-Hegglin anomaly and Sebastian syndrome, previously described as distinct disorders, represent some of the different clinical presentations of MYH9-RD.
Uniprot Description An autosomal dominant disorder characterized by thrombocytopenia, giant platelets and Dohle body-like inclusions in peripheral blood leukocytes with variable ultrastructural appearance. Some affected individuals lack leukocyte inclusion bodies on classic staining of peripheral blood smears. Alport syndrome-like features of nephritis, hearing loss, and eye abnormalities are present in some patients.
