A 32 year-old asymptomatic male came to our attention with a 21-year history, documented elsewhere, of puzzling increases in his serum transaminase level. At first, very low serum
ceruloplasmin
level suggested Wilson disease. Two liver biopsies showed mild portal inflammation, steatosis and mild fibrosis. Further investigation revealed low levels of the glycoproteins AT III and clotting
factor XI
, leading to a diagnosis of congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG) type II. Further studies as to the cause of this 'apparently new' CDG, are ongoing. On the basis of our data and a literature review, we suggest that subjects with asymptomatic hypertransaminasaemia be screened for CDG.
