We report a term female infant born to nonconsanguineous parents who presented with renal failure at birth, hypothyroidism, cholestasis, and progressive cardiac dysfunction. Multigene next-generation sequencing panels for cholestasis, cardiomyopathy, and cystic renal disease did not reveal a unifying diagnosis. Whole exome sequencing revealed compound heterozygous pathogenic variants in ANKS6 (Ankyrin Repeat and Sterile Alpha Motif Domain Containing 6), which encodes a protein that interacts with other proteins of the Inv compartment of cilium ( NEK8, NPHP2/INVS, and NPHP3). ANKS6 has been shown to be important for early renal development and cardiac looping in animal models. Autopsy revealed cystic renal dysplasia and cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, disarray, and focal necrosis. Liver histology revealed cholestasis and centrilobular necrosis, which was likely a result of progressive cardiac failure. This is the first report of compound heterozygous variants in ANKS6 leading to a nephronopthisis-related ciliopathy-like phenotype. We conclude that pathogenic variants in ANKS6 may present early in life with severe renal and cardiac failure, similar to subjects with variants in genes encoding other proteins in the Inv compartment of the cilium.

A retrospective study of 1513 fetal postmortem examination reports from 1967 to 1996 yielded 35 cases with anomalous major pulmonary fissures (2.3%), to which a further 25 cases were added from fetal postmortem examinations performed between 1929 and 1966. Of 60 cases with anomalous fissures, 43 had an absent right horizontal fissure and 8 had a supernumerary left horizontal fissure; the remaining 9 showed various patterns in which one lung lacked major fissures. Histological examination in 29 cases did not reveal any additional pulmonary abnormality and pulmonary maturity was appropriate for gestational age. Additional malformations were present in 40 cases and these were frequently multiple, the most common being central nervous system, cardiovascular, and genitourinary system defects; notable heart malformations (10 cases); hydrocephalus (5 cases); and cystic renal dysplasia (4 cases). Chromosomal abnormalities were demonstrated in six cases although this figure does not reflect their prevalence, as many cases predate the availability of karyotyping. In seven cases, including three with polysplenia syndrome and one with situs inversus totalis, there was evidence of an underlying abnormality of left–right asymmetry, and in 13 cases there was documented pulmonary hypoplasia.
