| Clinical Info |
Hereditary Hemochromatosis (HH) is one of the most common genetic disorders, found most often in people of Northern European descent. It is a disorder of iron metabolism, characterized by inappropriately high absorption of iron by the gastrointestinal mucosa. Clinical HH is characterized by excessive storage of iron in several organs of the body including the liver, pancreas, endocrine glands, heart, skin, joints, testes, and intestinal lining. The buildup of iron in these organs can lead to hepatomegaly, hepatic cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, diabetes mellitus, cardiomyopathy, hypogonadism, arthritis (especially involving the metacarpophalangeal joints) and progressive increase in skin pigmentation. The prevalence of HH varies from 1 per 200-400 individuals in Caucasian population, to 1 per 220-250 in populations of Nordic or Celtic ancestry. The pattern of inheritance is recessive autosomal. |
