Report of a new variant susceptible of treatment with late diagnosis. PG - 207-209 LID - S0967-5868(18)30896-8 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.jocn.2018.10.046 [doi] AB - Neutral lipid storage disease with myopathy (NLSDM) is characterized by the accumulation of cytoplasmic triglyceride droplets in various tissues; this very rare condition is caused by mutations in the PNPLA2 gene, susceptible to specific pharmacological management that decreases clinical progression. We describe the clinical and biochemical characteristics of a Colombian patient with a previously unreported homozygous mutation in the PNPLA2 gene with a difficult to manage disease, who was diagnosed late by advances in molecular techniques.
