Early and severe neurological features in a Wilson disease patient compound heterozygous for two frameshift mutations.

Abstract excerpt

UNLABELLED: We describe a patient with Wilson disease who presented at 11 years of age with neurological symptoms and subsequent rapid progression of neurological impairment but absent hepatic manifestations. Molecular analysis showed compound heterozygosity for two frameshift mutations, 2299insC and 214delAT, which most likely result in an absent or inactive protein product. Mutation-phenotypic analysis...
