Popis: | The case of an 8-year-old male child with severe kernicterus sequelae is presented in this paper. The child's hemoglobin value varied between 6.0 and 10.8 g/dL and his reticulocyte count ranged between 3.4 and 46.0% during the steady-state condition and hyperhemolytic crisis, respectively. A chronic hemolytic typeof red cell G6PD deficiency was diagnosed. DNA studies indicate that the mutation was G6PD Guadalajara 1159 C M T (387 Arg M Cys) that is situated at the NADP binding site. Additionally, extra nucleotides of (TA) in the A(TA) n TAA motif of the promoter region of the uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyltransferase gene (UGT-1) were found to be homozygous in the patient. The coexistence of Gilbert syndrome with a chronic type of G6PD deficiency was suggested as a cause of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia leading to kernicterus. |
