摘要：

Morbus Wilson, or Wilson's disease, is a genetic disease of copper metabolism. Usually the disease is detected when the first clinical symptoms appear, generally not before 5 years of age. This case report shows that the disease can be detected much earlier if abnormal laboratory findings in the patient's history prompt further investigations.
