Abstract :
A 9-year-old boy with Wilson's disease and a combination of three uncommon clinical manifestations (cataract, gallstones and bone lesions) without significant CNS and liver involvement is described. The most common presentations of Wilson's disease are different types of liver involvement, CNS manifestations and hematologic disorders. Review of literature shows association of Wilson's with different presentations but to the best of our knowledge this patient is the first case of Wilson's disease with a combination of three uncommon features. Physicians should consider Wilson's disease as a differential diagnosis when encountering these features singly or in combination.
