Title: Chanarin Dorfman syndrome: a case report with novel nonsense mutation. Author: Gupta N, Gothwal S, Satpathy AK, Missaglia S, Tavian D, Das P, Timila D, Kabra M. Journal: Gene; 2016 Jan 10; 575(2 Pt 1):359-62. PubMed ID: 26353074. Abstract: Chanarin Dorfman syndrome (CDS) is a very rare neutral lipid metabolism disorder with multisystem involvement. It is inherited as an autosomal recessive manner. It is characterized with congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma and involvement of liver, muscle, and central nervous system.

We report a novel ABHD5 truncating variant in a twenty nine month old female child, who presented with icthyosiform erythroderma.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
