Barakat syndrome, also known as HDR syndrome, is a clinically heterogenous, autosomal dominant rare genetic disease, which frequency is unknown. It is primarily caused by deletion of chromosome 10p14 or mutation of GATA3 gene, located on chromosome 10. Although this syndrome is phenotypically defined by its triad of HDR: hypoparathyroidism (H), deafness (D), renal disease (R), the literature identifies cases with different components, consisting of HD, DR, HR (1). The syndrome was first described by Amin J. Barakat et al. in 1977 in siblings with hypocalcemia and proteinuria (2). So far, about 180 cases have been reported in the worldwide medical literature (3). In this report we present our own case report of patient with Barakat syndrome with hypoparathyrodism, unilateral deafness and renal impairment.

Hypoparathyroidism (hypoPTH), sensorineural deafness, and renal dysplasia (HDR) syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant condition with approximately 200 cases published. HDR syndrome is caused by variants of GATA binding protein 3 gene (), which encodes a transcription factor, with multiple types of variants reported. We present the case of a 76-year-old woman who was diagnosed with hypoPTH when she was aged 40 years and transferred care to our institution.

Summary: HDR is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder characterized by the triad of hypoparathyroidism, sensorineural deafness and renal anomalies caused by haploinsufficiency loss of function of the GATA-binding protein 3 (GATA3) gene. We present a case of a 56-year-old male diagnosed with hypoparathyroidism, sensorineural deafness, renal hypoplasia and epilepsy. Genetic testing revealed a novel GATA3 heterozygous mutation c.

HDR syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by hypoparathyroidism (H), deafness (D), and renal dysplasia (R) caused by genetic variants of the GATA3 gene. We present the case of a 38-year-old Japanese man with HDR syndrome who exhibited hypoparathyroidism, sensorineural deafness, renal dysfunction, severe symptomatic hypocalcemia with Chvostek's and Trousseau's signs, and QT prolongation on electrocardiography. He had a family history of deafness and hypocalcemia.
