ABSTRACT=<p>Hepatolenticular degeneration, also known as Wilson’s disease (WD), is an autosomal recessive inheritance nervous disorder of copper metabolism. The treatment of hepatolenticular degeneration emphasizes the combination of medical therapy and dietary therapy, such as a high zinc, low copper and sulfhydryl rich diet.
