PERCHING syndrome

PERCHING syndrome is a rare condition that falls under the category of cold-induced sweating syndromes. It is caused by a mutation in the KLHL7 gene. This condition is known by several names, including CISS3, KLHL7 cold-induced sweating syndrome, and cold-induced sweating syndrome type 3 among others. The consistent factor in these conditions is the abnormal response to cold, which manifests as excessive sweating. The disorder is documented in multiple rare disease databases such as OMIM, Orphanet, and GARD. The detailed name variations help in recognizing that PERCHING syndrome is part of a broader group of conditions related to mutations in the KLHL7 gene. The information provided is based on a clear genetic definition that links the mutation in this gene to the syndrome.

Information about symptoms is currently limited for this condition.

PERCHING syndrome is caused by a mutation in the KLHL7 gene. This genetic change leads to the abnormal cold-induced sweating that is characteristic of the condition. Knowledge about this cause comes from the identification of KLHL7 as the known gene linked to the syndrome.
