Inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs), primarily cystinosis, Fabry disease, and methylmalonic acidemia (MMA), are genetic conditions that typically result in multi-organ disease manifestations.

Kidney transplantation has been deemed the optimal renal replacement therapy option to achieve long-term survival in patients with IMD.
