Fatty liver in H63D homozygotes with hyperferritinemia [PDF]
To study the clinical correlates of the H63D mutation we have analysed the phenotype of H63D homo-zygotes identified through mutation analysis in a referral laboratory. A total of 366 blood samples referred for HFE analysis were screened for C282Y and H63D mutations. Four H63D homozygotes were identified.
