-
A rare genetic parenchymal hepatic disease with characteristics of acute liver failure that occurs in the first year of life, which manifests with failure to thrive, hypotonia, moderate global developmental delay, seizures, abnormal liver function tests, microcytic anaemia and elevated serum lactate. Other associated features include hepato-steatosis and fibrosis, abnormal brain morphology, and renal tubulopathy. Minor illness exacerbates deterioration of liver failure. There is evidence the disease may be caused by homozygous mutation in the LARS gene on chromosome 5q32.
