What diet should be given for a 3 year old diagnosed with Frazier s syndrome?
Patient: Hello, my name is Lisa. I just found out that my 3 yr old son has Fraziers Syndrome. He is also developmental delay, Autistic and has cardiac mumours. My question is all the research that I have done tonight shows me that it all boils down to the kidneys. what diet should I have him on to maintain them in Great health and can he play in sports without stressing out the body. Doctor: Thanks Lisa for putting up your query at HealthCareMagic. I am sorry that your 3 year old son is suffering from Frasier syndrome. It is a rare disease with improper development (dysplasia), underdevelopment (hypoplasia), or absence of one or both kidneys (unilateral or bilateral renal agenesis) caused due to a genetic defect. There are certain other associated abnormalities and I am not going into the details. Unless I can come to know the exact nature of kidney defect your child has, it is difficult to comment on the diet. An ultrasonography would make things clearer. That would also indicate whether the livers are affected as well. That too would play a role in determining the diet. It would also vary with the presence or absence of protein in urine which would indicate a defect at microscopic level. Please get back to me with the details and I would try to help you further.
