Abstract During recent decades researches of the role of a morphophysiological heterogeneity of human populations have been gaining a growing significance for issues of risk factors profi les, prevalence, formation, course, and outcomes of various psychoneurological pathologies. In the article results of an anthropomorhological examination of a population of patients with Wilson’s disease are presented. The appropriate composition of this population was studied and peculiarities of its anthropological structure were revealed. On the base of the data obtained anthropological phenotypic complexes inherent to patients with Wilson’s disease were determined. It was demonstrated an association between presence of this pathology and Mediterranean (61.29 % of patients) and, to a lesser extent, Atlantic-Baltic (16.13 %) anthropological phenotypic variants.
Key words Wilson’s disease, anthropological phenotypic variant, epide miology
