RESUMEN
Nail-patella syndrome (NPS) is a rare genetic disorder with multiple skeletal deformities and a variety of extra-skeletal involvements. We present a 17-year-old male with a clinical tetrad of skeletal abnormalities, multiple bony deformities, advanced renal failure, hypothyroidism, and dilated cardiomyopathy. A clinical diagnosis of NPS was made, supported by radiographic findings, and corroborated by compatible renal biopsy results. There are very few published reports describing the association of dilated cardiomyopathy with this syndrome. A high index of suspicion is needed to make this diagnosis, given myriads of multi-systemic manifestations.
