Abstract

Farber disease caused by acid ceramidase deficiency is characterised by a triad of painful and swollen joints, subcutaneous nodules, and laryngeal involvement. A one year old female with overlapping features of the classical and type 5 variants is reported. Sialuria and elevated plasma chitotriosidase were unusual findings. A novel mutation of the ASAH 1 gene was detected from DNA extracted from the umbilical stump.
