Wilson's disease is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder. This means that in Wilson's disease, the body receives two abnormal ATP7B genes (one from the father and one from the mother). Children with Wilson's disease will have disorders in the body's copper metabolism, leading to other dangerous diseases.

Wilson's disease is an autosomal recessive genetic disease that causes the body to be unable to excrete excess copper, leading to copper accumulation in body tissues, causing toxicity to the patient and even endangering life.
