Bezmialem Science 2019;7(1):74-6.https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12645/5662Niemann-Pick disease (NPD) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal lipid storage disorder with accompanying symptoms including hepatosplenomegaly and thrombocytopenia. Delayed or extensive dental treatment may need to be delivered under general anesthesia and the management of such treatments in these children may require advanced medical support including intensive care (IC).
