Cystic fibrosis in a child from Syria.

Annals of tropical paediatrics - 1 Mar 2002

Wahab A Abdul, Janahi I A, Hebi S, al-Hamed M, Kambouris M

Abstract excerpt

We describe a Syrian child with typical features of severe cystic fibrosis (CF) phenotype and a positive sweat test. DNA analysis confirmed homozygosity for the delta F508 mutation on chromosome 7. This report stresses the need to draw attention to and consider CF in Arab populations. The frequency and distribution of delta F508 in the Middle East are reviewed.
