Detecting Hereditary Hemochromatosis

The Nurse Practitioner, 2000
Hereditary hemochromatosis is the most commonly inherited autosomal recessive disorder. Hemochromatosis is a current or potential progression of abnormally high accumulations of iron in the liver. If left untreated, the condition can lead to chronic or irreversible hepatic fibrosis, cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, arthritis, and organ failure ...

Opportunistic Screening for Hereditary Hemochromatosis With Unenhanced CT: Determination of an Optimal Liver Attenuation Threshold.

AJR. American journal of roentgenology, 2018
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess whether a specific liver attenuation threshold for unenhanced CT allows both sensitive opportunistic detection of unsuspected hereditary hemochromatosis and low overall screening test-positive rates ...

Hereditary hemochromatosis.

Minerva medica, 2009
Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) refers to several inherited disorders of iron metabolism leading to tissue iron overload. Classical HH is associated with mutations in HFE (C282Y homozygotes or C282Y/H63D compound heterozygotes) and is almost exclusively found in populations of northern European descent.

Hereditary hemochromatosis (HHC) is an inherited disease transmitted in an autosomal recessive pattern. With homozygosity occurring in up to 0.5% of the population, HHC is the most prevalent genetic disease among the white population worldwide and has the same prevalence as the sickle cell trait in the African-American population.
