Definition

Arrest of lung development in the cananicular stage (weeks 18 to 26 of human gestation) resulting in simplified acinar spaces, frequently with abundant intervening mesenchyme and no alveoli. In later arrest growth stages early saccular formations may be seen. May resemble the lobular maldevelopment often seen in alveolar capillary dysplasia/misaligment of the pulmonary veins without vein misalignment or marked hypertensive changes of the pulmonary arteries. [from HPO]

MedGen UID:

Concept ID:
C1837026
Disease or Syndrome
WT1 disorder is characterized by congenital/infantile or childhood onset of steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS), a progressive glomerulopathy that does not respond to standard steroid therapy. Additional common findings can include disorders of testicular development (with or without abnormalities of the external genitalia and/or müllerian structures) and Wilms tumor. Less common findings are congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) and gonadoblastoma. While various combinations of renal and other findings associated with a WT1 pathogenic variant were designated as certain syndromes in the past, those designations are now recognized to be part of a phenotypic continuum and are no longer clinically helpful.
