The aim of the study was to assess prevalence of Kayser-Fleischer ring in children with Wilson's disease. 36 patients aged 7-17 years were enrolled into the study. All of them underwent ophthalmic examination by slit-lamp biomicroscopy. Kayser-Fleischer ring was found in 2 children (5.6%)--16 years old boy and girl with liver insufficiency. In addition, the girl had neurological symptoms. After 2 years of treatment K-F ring was not detected in the girl's eyes. Our data indicate that Kayser-Fleischer ring is rare in children and its absence does not exclude diagnosis of Wilson's disease.
该研究的目的是评估肝豆状核变性患儿凯-弗环的患病率。36名年龄在7至17岁的患者被纳入该研究。他们均接受了裂隙灯生物显微镜眼科检查。在2名儿童(5.6%)中发现了凯-弗环,分别是一名16岁患有肝功能不全的男孩和女孩。此外,该女孩有神经症状。经过2年治疗后,在该女孩眼中未检测到凯-弗环。我们的数据表明,凯-弗环在儿童中罕见,其不存在并不排除肝豆状核变性的诊断。
