Diagnosis and phenotypic classification of Wilson disease
Peter Ferenci,Karel Caca,Georgios Loudianos,G Mieli-Vergani,Stuart Tanner,Irmin Sternlieb,Michael L. Schilsky,Diane W. Cox,Frieder Berr +8 more
TL;DR: The Wilson disease gene ATP7B encodes a P‐type ATPase, an inherited autosomal recessive disorder of hepatic copper metabolism leading to copper accumulation in hepatocytes and in extrahepatic organs such as the brain and the cornea.
EASL Clinical Practice Guidelines: Wilson's disease
Peter Ferenci,Anna Członkowska,Wolfgang Stremmel,Roderick H. J. Houwen,William Rosenberg,Michael L. Schilsky,P Jansen,Darius Moradpour,J D Gitlin +8 more
TL;DR: There is not a single randomized controlled trial conducted in Wilson's disease which has an optimal design so it is impossible to assign a high or even a moderate quality of evidence to any of the questions dealt with in these guidelines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late-onset Wilson's disease.
Peter Ferenci,Anna Członkowska,Uta Merle,Szalay Ferenc,Grażyna Gromadzka,Cihan Yurdaydin,Wolfgang Vogel,Radan Bruha,Hartmut T. Schmidt,Wolfgang Stremmel +9 more
TL;DR: The diagnostic features and the frequency of late-onset Wilson's disease gene mutations were not different than in patients with an earlier onset of disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pathophysiology and clinical features of Wilson disease.
TL;DR: The diagnosis of Wilson disease requires a combination of a variety of clinical symptoms, biochemical tests, and detection of gene mutations, which are the basis of a score proposed by a group of international experts.
Book ChapterDOI
Diagnosis of Wilson disease
TL;DR: Diagnosis is particularly difficult in children and in adults presenting with active liver disease and in asymptomatic siblings of index patients, mutation analysis is the most reliable approach.
