Abstract
Mutation in ABHD5 causes Dorfman-Chanarin syndrome (DCS), a multisystem triglyceride storage disorder. Ultrastructural study of leukocytes confirmed DCS in a child homozygous for a novel ABHD5 mutation, with ichthyosis, developmental delay, and steatohepatitis with cirrhosis, manifest only as elevated aminotranferase levels. We recommend early assessment for liver disease in DCS.Entities:
