Neurodevelopmental disorder with epilepsy and hemochromatosis

Neurodevelopmental disorder with epilepsy and hemochromatosis (NEDEPH) is an X-linked recessive disorder characterized by global developmental delay, early-onset seizures, and progressive systemic iron deposition particularly affecting the liver and resulting in juvenile-onset hemochromatosis. Variable additional features may include joint contractures, visual or hearing impairment, and skin abnormalities (summary by Swoboda et al., 2014 and Muckenthaler et al., 2022). [from OMIM]
