X-linked Alport syndrome causes end-stage kidney disease in young male patients, sometime without prominent clinical manifestation beforehand due to its heterogeneous phenotype. We report two male siblings with end-stage kidney disease supposedly caused by Alport syndrome, without previous reported signs and symptoms.
