Barakat syndrome, also known as HDR syndrome (hypoparathyroidism, deafness and renal dysplasia), is a rare autosomal dominant disorder, secondary to mutation of the GATA3 gene which is located at chromosome 10p. The GATA3 protein is one of the transcription factors which play an essential role in the embryonic development of the parathyroids, inner ears and kidneys. We report a Chinese patient ...

Hypoparathyroidism, deafness and renal dysplasia (HDR; OMIM 146255) syndrome is a rare disease which is first defined by Barakat in 1977 (1). It is characterized by hypoparathyroidism, sensorineural deafness and renal dysplasia, inherited dominantly and found to be related with GATA3 gene mutations. This gene is located on 10 p 15 and is essential in embryonic development of the parathyroid gla...
