Waardenburg syndrome is an inherited syndrome often characterized by varying degrees of hearing loss, changes in skin and hair pigmentations. In the literature, the association of Waardenburg syndrome and renal anomaly is extremely rare. A 32-year-old male patient was admitted to the our clinic with complaints of swelling in face, eye area and legs who was previously diagnosed with Waardenburg syndrome. Renal biopsy was performed to patient and the biopsy result was reported as minimal change disease. Prednisolone at 1mg/kg/day was initiated to patient and treatment was continued for 5 months with reducing doses. The patient was in remission at the end of the year. We report a case with assosiation of Waardenburg syndrome and glomerular pathology.
