=========================
1. Wilson's Disease

Have a person who may have Wilson's disease.  How would diagnosis
normally proceed?  She also claims that some of her blood relatives have
similar symptoms.

Is anyone interested in this apparent cluster of this rare disorder?

======================================
2. Hypercoagulability?
An italian girl aged six in very serious condition in the hospital of
Brotzu in Cagliari, Sardinia.

The syndrome is characterized by:

- blood hypercoagulation
- thrombi of red colour with a white nucleus and a length of about 2-3cm
which form in about 15 sec.
- the left leg has already been amputated and until now no diagnosis could
be reached

Whoever might be capable of hypothesizing a cause of the disease or of
recognizing it, please contact one of the following email addresses :

lukrezia@mbox.vol.it
stefania@alanet.it
schintu@pan.bio.uniroma1.it
psico@mbox.vol.it

Thank you very much for your help.
