## TL;DR

A 13-year-old boy with hypoxia, microscopic hematuria, and hypertension is investigated to determine the underlying cause.

## Contribution

The paper presents a case study highlighting the diagnostic process for a rare combination of symptoms in adolescents.

## Key findings

- The patient exhibited persistent microscopic hematuria and hypertension.
- Further testing was required to determine the underlying cause of the symptoms.

## Abstract

A 13-year-old boy presented with hypoxia, microscopic hematuria, and elevated blood pressures. Persistent microscopic hematuria and hypertension led to investigation of glomerular and non-glomerular causes of hematuria. After reviewing his clinical course, family history, and laboratory testing, an additional test was sent, revealing the diagnosis.
