Is hepatolenticular degeneration inherited from parents or atavistic generations?

Wilson's disease

is a rare autosomal recessive disease, mainly caused by ATP7B gene mutation on chromosome 13. Because autosomal recessive inheritance process, parents will only carry the disease gene, not the disease, so when the mutation gene on chromosome 13 is passed on to children, it will cause the disease. Therefore, Wilson's disease is mostly inherited from generation to generation.

If the patient has Wilson's disease, it is necessary to limit the intake of foods high in copper, such as animal liver and mushrooms.
