Wilson's disease, or hepatolenticular degeneration, is an inherited metabolic disorder caused by a disturbance in copper metabolism in the body. The pathology is caused by autosomal recessive inheritance and is characterized by the accumulation of copper in tissues, especially in the liver and brain, which leads to the development of hepatitis, cirrhosis, and neurological and psychiatric disorders. As a result of copper excess, not only liver symptoms such as hepatomegaly and jaundice are observed, but also neurological manifestations such as tremor, impaired motor coordination, and personality changes. This disease manifests itself mainly in young age, but the first clinical symptoms can appear at any age, which makes its diagnosis and treatment especially important.<\/p>\n
