title: Non HFE related hereditary haemochromatosis.
abstract: Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is manifested as iron overload in different organs due to homozygosity of a single autosomal mutation. Two different mutations C282Y and H63D in the HFE gene have been associated with hereditary hemochromatosis cases. This disease is seen in northern european populations, but in India it is a rare disease. We report a young male with severe abnormalty of liver functions due to Non HFE related Hereditary Hemochromatosis.
