title: [Terminal renal failure in aniridia-Wilms syndrome].
abstract: Missing iris combined with debility and incidence of Wilms' tumor seem to be a complex syndrome which appears in 1:100,000 people. It is caused by an interstitial deletion on the short arm of chromosome no. 11. We refer to a patient who developed end-stage renal failure caused by a focal-segmental nephrosclerosis. He underwent renal transplantation because chronic hemodialysis was impossible due to his lack of compliance. The deletion of chromosome 11 could be recognized by chromosomal analysis after transplantation. An aniridia-Wilms' tumor association (AWTA) with following focal segmental nephrosclerosis could be diagnosed.
