Presentation
Treatment-resistant nephrotic syndrome generally presents in the third month of life, but albuminuria may be present from birth 1. Etiology Five monogenic mutations have been implicated in the pathogenesis of Galloway-Mowat syndrome. [radiopaedia.org]

Workup
Clinical Testing and Workup In affected infants, symptoms associated with nephrotic syndrome may become apparent within days, weeks, months, or in some cases, years after birth. [rarediseases.org]
Treatment
Treatment and prognosis There is no treatment for Galloway-Mowat syndrome 1. Affected individuals may survive for one year 1. References Promoted articles (advertising) [radiopaedia.org]

Prognosis
Citation metadata Document controls Main content Abstract : Galloway-Mowat syndrome (GMS) is an autosomal recessive disorder with a poor prognosis that was first defined as a triad of central nervous system involvement, hiatal hernia, and nephrotic syndrome [go.gale.com]

Conclusion: GAMOS3 is a progressive renal-neurological syndrome with a poor prognosis, especially with congenital NS. Microcephaly with dysmorphic features are vital clues to further evaluate renal impairment and brain anomalies. [pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
OR Prognosis is generally excellent/good/poor, and the 1/5/10-year mortality/survival rate of patients with [disease name] is approximately [#]%. [wikidoc.org]
Parents should talk to the physician and medical team about their child’s specific case, associated symptoms and overall prognosis. [rarediseases.org]
Etiology
The etiology of GAMOS has a heterogeneous genetic contribution. Mutations in more than 10 different genes have been reported in GAMOS patients. [xenbase.org]
Etiology Five monogenic mutations have been implicated in the pathogenesis of Galloway-Mowat syndrome. WD repeat-containing protein 73 (WDR73), which is a critical scaffold component of protein-complex assembly, was the first to be identified 1,2. [radiopaedia.org]

Epidemiology
Epidemiology and Demographics Galloway-Mowat syndrome affects males and females in equal numbers. More than 70 cases have been reported in the medical literature. [wikidoc.org]
Pathophysiology
OR The pathophysiology of [disease/malignancy] depends on the histological subtype. Causes In 2014, Galloway-Mowat syndrome was shown to be caused by alterations (mutations) in the WDR73 gene in a subset of cases. [wikidoc.org]
