Case Report

Cystic Fibrosis Mutation I1234V in a Qatari Lady

A. Abdul Wahab1

1 Department of Pediatrics, Hamad Medical Corporation, Doha, Qatar

We describe a late diagnosis of cystic fibrosis (CF) in a multiparous Qatari lady, in whom the main presenting symptoms were those of chronic lung disease. Genetic analysis showed that the patient has a homozygous mutation I1234V in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene. This suggests that this mutation has a variable expression of clinical severity and long survival.
