Treatment

A mutation in AP1S1 causes abnormal intracellular copper trafficking which subsequently affects copper-dependent enzymes leading to the symptoms of MEDNIK disease. [3] There is currently no cure or treatments tailored directly toward MEDNIK syndrome. [en.wikipedia.org]
There is currently no cure or treatments tailored directly toward MEDNIK syndrome. Patients with MEDNIK syndrome have been shown to display combined clinical and biochemical signs of both Menkes and Wilson s diseases. [eng.ichacha.net]
Treatment with zinc acetate resulted in improved clinical symptoms and liver copper metabolism. [pediatricneurologybriefs.com]
Prognosis
Usually, 20-25 normal metaphases (nMP) are considered to be optimal to exclude small abnormal clones which might be associated with poor prognosis. [pgzblaw.com]
If cataracts are present surgical removal may improve visual outcome but the indication for cataract surgery will have to be decided on an individual basis, based on overall severity and expected prognosis. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]

The varying pathophysiology of these disorders is also reflected in the variable response to therapy, which ranges from complete cure in acrodermatitis enteropathica to the virtual absence of effective treatment options in molybdenum cofactor deficiency [accesspediatrics.mhmedical.com]
