Tyrosinemia type II, also known as Richner-Hanhart Syndrome, is an extremely rare autosomal recessive disorder, caused by mutations in the gene encoding hepatic cytosolic tyrosine aminotransferase, leading to the accumulation of tyrosine and its metabolites which cause ocular and skin lesions, that may be accompanied by neurological manifestations, mostly intellectual disability.
Richner-Hanhart's syndrome (corneal dystrophies, palmoplantar keratoses, and mental retardation) is caused by high levels of L-tyrosine in the blood, probably due to a defect of soluble tyrosine aminotransferase.
