Nephropathy with pretibial epidermolysis bullosa and deafness is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations of the CD151 gene. So far only one truncating frameshift mutation is known. In the family affected members show an heretitary nephritis phenotype similar to Alport and also deafness and bullose epidermolysis.
