WILSON'S DISEASE (HEPATOLENTICULAR DEGENERATION) I. Pathophysiology An autosomal recessive defect in a copper-transporting ATP-ase that leads to impaired biliary excretion of copper The result is copper accumulation in the liver, and in later stages, the brain, cornea, and kidneys as well II. Clinical presentation Accumulation begins in infancy but usually presents clinically during adolescence Hepatic manifestations Most often presents with cirrhosis and portal hypertension 10-30% will have chronic active hepatitis Rarely, get fulminant hepatic failure Often get a pattern of recurrent mild hepatitis In some cases, liver injury is subclinical and dysfunction of other organs becomes apparent earlier Neuropsychiatric sx-motor sx (tremor, chorea, decreased movement), loss of coordination of fine movements; personality changes; sz are infrequent; sensory abnormalities don't seem to occur Hemolytic anemia (occurs when copper is released from liver into circulation in large amounts; usually accompanied by overt liver disease)-brief, self-limited

Go Back Nutrition for a Living Planet - Home Page Wilson's Disease (Hepatolenticular Degeneration) Wilson's Disease (Hepatolenticular Degeneration) is a genetic disorder that is fatal unless detected and treated before serious illness develops from copper poisoning. Wilson's Disease affects one in thirty thousand people world wide. The genetic defect causes excessive copper accumulation. Small amounts of copper are essential as vitamins. Copper is present in most foods, and most people get much more than they need. Healthy people excrete copper they don't need, but Wilson's Disease patients cannot. The gene for Wilson's disease (ATP7B) was mapped to chromosome 13. The sequence of the gene was found to be similar to sections of the gene defective in Menkes disease, another disease caused by defects in copper transport. The liver of a person who has Wilson's disease does not release copper into bile as it should. Bile is a liquid produced by the liver that helps with digestion. As the intestines absorb copper from food, the copper builds up in the liver and injures liver tissue. Eventually, the damage causes the liver to release the copper directly into the bloodstream, which carries the copper throughout the body. The copper buildup leads to damage in the kidneys, brain, and eyes. If not treated, Wilson's disease can cause severe brain damage, liver failure, and death. Symptoms usually appear between the ages of 6 and 20 years, but can begin as late as age 40. The most characteristic sign is the Kayser-Fleischer ringa rusty brown ring around the cornea of the eye that can be seen only through an eye exam. Other signs depend on whether the damage occurs in the liver, blood, central nervous system, urinary system, or musculoskeletal system. Many signs would be detected only by a doctor, like swelling of the liver and spleen; fluid buildup in the lining of the abdomen; anemia; low platelet and white blood cell count in the blood; high levels of amino acids, protein, uric acid, and carbohydrates in urine; and softening of the bones. Some symptoms are more obvious, like jaundice, which appears as yellowing of the eyes and skin; vomiting blood; speech and language problems; tremors in the arms and hands; and rigid muscles.

HEPATOLENTICULAR DEGENERATION - An inherited ( autosomal recessive ) disorder where there is excessive quantities of copper in the tissues, particularly the liver and central nervous system. Wilson's disease causes the body to absorb and retain copper. The copper deposits in the liver, brain, kidneys , and eyes. Complications include dementia and liver failure . Symptoms include jaundice vomiting , tremors, weakness, and slow stiff movements. Blood tests show serum ceruloplasmin is low. Medications are given to remove the excess copper from the body. Even with life-long treatment, disabling ( and life-threatening) side effects are common.

13. Liver Information: Hepatolenticular Degeneration Caused By Excessive Deposition Wilson disease, also referred to as hepatolenticular degeneration, is caused byexcessive deposition of copper within the liver, the central nervous system http://www.livertransplant.org/livernewsletter-wilsondisease.html

Wilson Disease Wilson disease, also referred to as hepatolenticular degeneration, is caused by excessive deposition of copper within the liver, the central nervous system predominately in the basal ganglia and putamen, kidney, placenta and cornea. Patients can present with a wide range of clinical symptoms including movement disorders, speech impediments, psychiatric disorders, renal dysfunction and hemolytic anemia. In the liver, excess copper can cause chronic hepatitis with subsequent cirrhosis and eventual liver failure. Accelerated hepatic injury associated with acute Wilsonian crisis can lead to rapid liver failure and commonly requires liver transplantation. Like hemochromatosis, excessive accumulation of a divalent metal, copper, results in chemical generation of reactive oxygen intermediates causing cellular injury and organ damage. In summary, Wilson disease is an autosomal recessive disease caused by multiple mutations located throughout the WND gene. At this time, the diagnosis of Wilson disease is made by clinical and biochemical evidence of excess copper storage and not by genotyping studies. Haplotype analysis or screening for mutations identified in a Wilson disease patient can be used to identify siblings that may be carriers of the disease before occurrence of the clinical complication of excess copper storage.
