Abstract

Wilson’s disease, also known as hepato-lenticular degeneration, is one of the very rare autosomal recessive disorder of copper metabolism. There is impaired liver metabolism of copper thereby causing decreased biliary excretion and deposition of ceruloplasmin levels mainly in the liver, corneas of eyes and brain. Untreated Wilson’s disease has been associated with menstrual irregularities, amenorrhoea, miscarriages and infertility. Hence proper chelation with strict antenatal surveillance will lead to a successful feto-maternal outcome. [Katke R Natl J Integr Res Med, 2021; 12(2):78-81]
