Intestinal lymphangiectasia in a patient with Zellweger cerebrohepatorenal syndrome.
Zellweger cerebrohepatorenal syndrome (ZWCHRS) is an autosomal-recessive disease, characterized by the absence or profound deficiency of peroxisomes. We report a case of ZWCHRS with intestinal lymphangiectasia, observed as an autopsy finding. This combination is previously unreported.
