Hidden kidney damage in Wilson's disease under the microscope
NCT ID NCT07075393
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how often kidney problems occur in people with Wilson's disease, a rare genetic condition that causes copper buildup. Researchers will check 150 patients aged 7 and older for signs of kidney damage, including chronic kidney disease, tubule issues, and calcium imbalances. The goal is to better understand and detect these complications early, since they are often overlooked.
