Abstract Background and Aims Congenital solitary kidney – one category of congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) may combine with other system malformations such as reproductive, cardiac, skeletal system, and so on. Our study analysed the clinical characteristics among congenital solitary kidney patients and their reproductive system malformations. And further work about probable pathogenic genes was explored. Method The information of CAKUT patients who were indicated by Doppler ultrasound was collected. The clinical and imaging features including reproductive system abnormalities were retrospectively reviewed in patients with congenital solitary kidney. In patients with Mayer-Rokitansky- Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome, a disorder of congenital agenesis of uterus and vagina, whole exome sequencing was performed. Rare variants in CAKUT-related genes were analysed. Trio analysis was conducted to identify de novo mutations. Results We identified 209 patients with congenital solitary kidney from July 20, 2017 to July 19, 2020 among 1160 CAKUT patients in Peking Union Medical College Hospital. There were 152 females. The average age of congenital solitary kidney patients was 35.26±18.42 years when they were diagnosed. 53.2% showed different degrees of proteinuria and hematuria. Serum creatinine elevating was proved 13.1% and 40% in women and men separately. Among 81 females who also had a gynecological ultrasound report, 88.9% combined with genital malformation, oblique vaginal septum syndrome 48.7%, the Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome 22.2%, malformed uterus 23.5%, vaginal atresia and other genital malformation 7%. Congenital heart disease, complete transposition of viscera, and scoliosis were also found in some patients with congenital solitary kidney. Furthermore, based on the whole exome data of 443 patients with MRKH syndrome, seven function-lost mutations were confirmed. And also two De nove mutations (NOTCH2 (NM_024408.3: c.703A>T(p.Thr235Ser), ESRRG (NM_001243512.1:c.-169-8delT)), one homozygous patients with parents heterozygous (NM_133433.3:c.8084C>T(p.Thr2695Me) were identified as possible pathogenic genes caused CAKUT. Conclusion We should be aware of reproductive system malformations in CAKUT patients. Whole exome sequencing may suggest common pathogenic genes between the two kinds of diseases.
