Abstract

In this review, we concentrate on those inherited metabolic disorders that manifest in hepatic disease as a predominant component of a generalized metabolic disturbance, often for the first time in adult or early adult life. They include hereditary hemochromatosis, Wilson's disease, α1-antitrypsin deficiency, and certain disorders of lipid storage such as Gaucher's and Niemann-Pick diseases.
