Abstract
|
|
|
Wilson´s disease is an autosomal, recessively inherited, inborn error involving abnormal copper handling by the liver. Clinically, the disease is characterized by neurological symptoms, cirrhosis, Kayser-Fleischer rings, and a variety of other symptoms. The symptoms are believed to be due mainly to the excessive accumulation of copper in the liver, brain, cornea, and other organs.
We experienced two patients of wilson´s disease diagnosed by neurological symptoms, KayserFleischer rings on the cornea, laboratory findings, and brain CT.
We present the cases with the brief review of the literature.
