Am J Med Genet. 1995 Aug 28;58(2):152-4. doi: 10.1002/ajmg.1320580212.

Abstract

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.
