The coexistence of progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 2, failure to thrive due to an LPIN3 mutation, and stigmata of neonatal neurofibromatosis represents a complex diagnostic challenge. Case report: We present a child with cholestasis requiring hepatic transplantation, explained by the progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 2, failure to thrive could be contributed to by the LPIN3 mutation, and skin findings along with the family history of the patient was due to neurofibromatosis type 1. Conclusion: Our case illustrates the complexities of multiple genetic mutations in a child.
2型进行性家族性肝内胆汁淤积症、因LPIN3突变导致的生长发育迟缓以及新生儿神经纤维瘤病体征并存,是一项复杂的诊断挑战。病例报告:我们报告一名患有胆汁淤积症需进行肝移植的儿童,其病因是2型进行性家族性肝内胆汁淤积症;生长发育迟缓可能由LPIN3突变所致;皮肤表现及患者家族史则归因于1型神经纤维瘤病。结论:我们的病例说明了儿童中多种基因突变的复杂性。
