We report a 27-year-old woman who developed Coombs' negative hemolytic anemia and fulminant hepatic failure as the initial manifestation of Wilson's disease. Unmeasurably low level of serum alkaline phosphatase provided a clue to the diagnosis of Wilson's disease. The diagnosis was established with the presence of Kayser-Fleischer ring, decreased serum ceruloplasmin level, and elevated urine an...

A 19-year-old female presented with haemolytic anaemia and subsequently developed liver failure. This raised suspicion of Wilson's disease, which was confirmed by Kayser-Fleischer rings, a low ceruloplasmin level, raised 24-hour urinary copper excretion and two mutations in the 'Wilson gene'. She was successfully treated with D-penicillamine and zinc. In young patients with unexplained haemolys...

We show how the renormalization constant of Higgs vacuum expectation value, fixed by a tadpole condition, is responsible for gauge dependences in various definitions parameters $R_{\xi}$-gauge. Then we relationship this to Fleischer-Jegerlehner (FJ) scheme, which used avoid these dependences. In way, also present viewpoint on FJ-scheme complementary ones already existing literature. Additionall...

Wilson disease is a pathology because of a gene mutation causing malfunction in the copper excretion from the organism. Therefore, copper accumulation in the human body gives rise to oxidative processes. Hence, Wilson disease causes several disorders including affecting tissues and organs. Neurological disorders leads to copper accumulation in the human body. Approximately 95% of individuals wi...

BACKGROUND Wilson's disease with osseomuscular type is a rare condition, which often lacks typical hepatic and neurological symptoms and causes misdiagnoses easily. During the past 10 years, eight Chinese patients of osseomuscular type of Wilson's disease were identified in our clinic. METHODS Clinical information was gathered from medical records and follow-ups. The genetic testing was pe...

PURPOSE To present anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) findings of the Kayser-Fleischer (KF) ring in Wilson disease (WD) and to discuss the potential advantages of evaluating the KF ring by AS-OCT. METHODS This is a retrospective case series of 7 patients with WD with KF rings seen in our institute during the study period (August 2015 to June 2016). All patients underwent s...
