Hermansky-pudlak Syndrome 4; Hps4

Description

Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome-4 (HPS4) is characterized by oculocutaneous albinism in association with easy bruising or a bleeding tendency and absence of platelet dense bodies. Some patients also exhibit pulmonary fibrosis and/or granulomatous colitis (Anderson et al., 2003).For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome, see HPS1 (OMIM ).
