Preferred Label : Pancreatic lipase deficiency;

Symbol : PNLIPD;

CISMeF acronym : PNLIPD;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Lipase, congenital absence of pancreatic; Pl deficiency;

Included titles and symbols : Pancreatic colipase deficiency; Colipase, congenital absence of pancreatic; Lipase and colipase, deficiency of; Lipase and colipase, congenital absence of pancreatic;

Description : Congenital pancreatic lipase deficiency is a rare, monoenzymatic form of exocrine pancreatic failure. All reported patients have presented with similar symptoms and clinical findings, including oily/greasy stools from infancy or early childhood and the absence of discernable pancreatic disease. Failure to thrive has not been observed. Analyses of duodenal contents consistently show a marked decrease of pancreatic lipolytic activity (summary by Figarella et al., 1980).;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the pancreatic lipase gene (PNLIP, 246600.0001);

Laboratory abnormalities : Low pancreatic lipase levels; Low fecal elastase levels (in some patients); Low or low-normal levels of fat-soluble vitamins; Abnormal pancreolauryl test (in some patients); Hypolipidemia (in some patients);
