Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis
Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare autosomal recessive disease due to a defect in bile acid metabolism. Worldwide, more than 300 patients have been described. Mutations in the CYP27A1 gene result in sterol 27-hydroxylase deficiency leading to the accumulation of cholestanol in multiple body tissues.
