Abstract

Abstract

This article reports a case with the chief complaint of “hepatosplenomegaly to be investigated” and a confirmed diagnosis of Niemann-Pick disease type B after various tests， and a literature review was conducted to summarize the heterogeneous manifestations of liver involvement in type B Niemann-Pick disease， in order to improve the clinical management of difficult and rare liver diseases.
