Abstract

Wilson’s disease is a disorder of copper metabolism that results in the accumulation of copper in various body tissues. The most common organs involved in this disease are the liver and the brain, with most of the clinical symptoms being related to these 2 organs. Albeit less affected, the cardiovascular system is also involved. In this paper, we aim to report a very rare cardiac complication of Wilson’s disease. © 2021, Iranian Heart Association.
