Additional Information:

Description: (OMIM) Senior-Loken syndrome is an autosomal recessive disease with the main features of nephronophthisis (NPHP; see 256100) and Leber congenital amaurosis (see 204000). Mutations in some of the same genes that cause nephronophthisis (see 256100) cause Senior-Loken syndrome. ...
Clinical Description OMIM Loken et al. (1961) reported brother and sister with the main features of nephronophthisis and Leber congenital amaurosis. In the sister, renal dysplasia was proved at autopsy. Senior et al. (1961) and Fairley et al. (1963) also reported ...
Molecular genetics OMIM Caridi et al. (1998) described Senior-Loken syndrome (SLSN1) in patients with homozygous deletion (607100.0005) of the NPHP1 gene.

Population genetics OMIM The prevalence of nephronophthisis is estimated to be 1 in 100,000, with 1 in 10 affected individuals having retinal dysfunction, constituting Senior-Loken syndrome (summary by Otto et al., 2005).
