'''Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome''' (HPS) is a rare [[autosomal]] [[recessive]]<ref>{{cite journal |pmid=9497254 |date=March 1998 |author=Oh, J; Ho, L; Ala-Mello, S; Amato, D; Armstrong, L; Bellucci, S; Carakushansky, G; Ellis, Jp; Fong, Ct; Green, Js; Heon, E; Legius, E; Levin, Av; Nieuwenhuis, Hk; Pinckers, A; Tamura, N; Whiteford, Ml; Yamasaki, H; Spritz, Ra |title=Mutation analysis of patients with Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome: a frameshift hot spot in the HPS gene and apparent locus heterogeneity |volume=62 |issue=3 |pages=593–8 |pmc=1376951 |doi=10.1086/301757 |journal=American Journal of Human Genetics}}</ref> disorder which results in [[Albinism|oculocutaneous albinism]] (decreased [[pigmentation]]), bleeding problems due to a [[platelet]] abnormality ([[platelet storage pool defect]]), and storage of an abnormal fat-protein compound ([[lysosome|lysosomal]] accumulation of [[ceroid lipofuscin]]).

It is considered to affect around 1 in 500,000 people worldwide, with a significantly higher occurrence in [[Puerto Rico|Puerto Ricans]], with a prevalence of 1 in 1800.<ref name="pmid16417222">{{cite journal |vauthors=Santiago Borrero PJ, Rodríguez-Pérez Y, Renta JY, etal |title=Genetic testing for oculocutaneous albinism type 1 and 2 and Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome type 1 and 3 mutations in Puerto Rico |journal=[[J.

==Prognosis==

The disease can cause dysfunctions of the [[lung]]s, [[intestine]], [[kidney]]s or [[heart]].

==Diagnosis==
The diagnosis of HPS is established by clinical findings of hypopigmentation
of the skin and hair, characteristic eye findings, and demonstration of absent
dense bodies on whole mount electron microscopy of platelets. Molecular
genetic testing of the HPS1 gene is available on a clinical basis for
individuals from northwestern Puerto Rico. Molecular testing of the HPS3 gene
is available on a clinical basis for individuals of central Puerto Rican or
Ashkenazi Jewish heritage. Sequence analysis is available on a clinical basis
for mutations in HPS1 and HPS4. Diagnosis of individuals with other types of
HPS is available on a research basis only.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bookshelf/br.fcgi?book=gene&part=hps | title=Hermansky–Pudlak Syndrome | accessdate=2008-11-24}}</ref>

==Causes==
HPS can be caused by [[mutation]]s in several [[gene]]s: [[HPS1]], [[HPS3]], [[HPS4]], [[HPS5]], [[HPS6]] and [[HPS7]].

HPS type 2, which includes immunodeficiency in its phenotype, is caused by mutation in the [[AP3B1]] gene.

HPS type 7 may result from a mutation in the gene coding for [[dysbindin]] protein.<ref name="pmid12923531">{{cite journal |author=Li W, Zhang Q, Oiso N, Novak EK, Gautam R, O'Brien EP, Tinsley CL, Blake DJ, Spritz RA, Copeland NG, Jenkins NA, Amato D, Roe BA, Starcevic M, Dell'Angelica EC, Elliott RW, Mishra V, Kingsmore SF, Paylor RE, Swank RT |title=Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome type 7 (HPS-7) results from mutant dysbindin, a member of the biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles complex 1 (BLOC-1) |journal=Nat. Genet. |volume=35 |issue=1 |pages=84–9 |year=2003 |pmid=12923531 |doi=10.1038/ng1229 |pmc=2860733}}</ref>

Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome is thought to be inherited as an autosomal recessive genetic trait. The defective gene, called HSP {{dubious|HPS1 and HPS6 are located in 10q|date=January 2016}}, responsible for this disorder is located on the long arm of [[chromosome 10]] (10q2). Some research suggests that an abnormality of lysosomal function may be responsible for the development of the disease. HPS1, AP3B1, HPS3, HPS4, HPS5, HPS6, DTNBP1 and BLOC1S3 are associated with Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome.

In autosomal recessive disorders, the condition does not appear unless a person inherits two copies of the defective gene responsible for the disorder, one copy coming from each parent. If an individual receives one normal gene and one gene for the disorder, the person will be a carrier for the disease, but usually will not show symptoms. The risk of transmitting the disease to the children of a couple, both of whom are carriers for a recessive disorder, is 25 percent. Fifty percent of their children risk being carriers of the disease, but generally will not show symptoms of the disorder. Twenty-five percent of their children may receive both normal genes, one from each parent, and will be genetically normal (for that particular trait). The risk is the same for each pregnancy.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.cigna.com/healthinfo/nord946.html | title=CIGNA - Hermansky–Pudlak Syndrome | accessdate=2008-11-24}}</ref>

==Symptoms==
There are three main disorders caused by Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome, which result in these symptoms:
*Albinism and eye problems: Individuals will have varying amounts of skin pigment (melanin). Because of the albinism there are eye problems such as light sensitivity (photophobia), strabismus (crossed eyes), and nystagmus (involuntary eye movements). Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome also impairs vision.
*Bleeding disorders: Individuals with the syndrome have platelet dysfunction. Since platelets are necessary for blood clotting, individuals will bruise and bleed easily.
*Cellular storage disorders: The syndrome causes a wax-like substance (ceroid) to accumulate in the body tissues and cause damage, especially in the lungs and kidneys.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://rarediseases.about.com/od/rarediseasesh/a/090404.htm | title=Hermansky–Pudlak Syndrome | accessdate=2008-11-24}}</ref>
*Is associated with Granulomatous Colitis.
It also associated with Pulmonary Fibrosis, a fatal lung disease.

==Treatment==
While there is no cure for HPS, treatment for chronic [[hemorrhage]]s associated with the disorder includes therapy with [[vitamin E]] and the antidiuretic [[dDAVP]].<ref>{{cite journal |pmid=2916560 |date=March 1989 |author=Wijermans, Pw; Van, Dorp, Db |title=Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome: correction of bleeding time by 1-desamino-8D-arginine vasopressin |volume=30 |issue=3 |pages=154–7 |issn=0361-8609 |journal=American journal of hematology |doi=10.1002/ajh.2830300307}}</ref>

== Considerations for patients ==
A preoperative pulmonology consultation is needed. The anesthesia team should
be aware that patients may have postoperative pulmonary complications as part
of the syndrome.

Preoperative hematology consultation is advisable prior to elective ocular
surgeries. Since patients with the syndrome have bleeding tendencies,
intraoperative, perioperative, and postoperative hemorrhages should be
prevented and treated. If platelet aggregation improves with desmopressin, it
may be administered in the preoperative period. However, sometimes
plasmapheresis is needed in the perioperative period.

Ophthalmologists should try to avoid retrobulbar blocks in patients with the
syndrome. Whenever possible, patients with HPS may benefit from general
endotracheal anesthesia. Phacoemulsification may help prevent intraoperative
and postoperative bleeding in patients with the syndrome. Prolonged bleeding
has been reported following strabismus surgery in patients with the syndrome.

==Clinical Research==
HPS is one of the rare lung diseases currently being studied by The Rare Lung Diseases Consortium (RLDC). The RLDC is part of the Rare Diseases Clinical Research Network (RDCRN), an initiative of the Office of Rare Diseases Research (ORDR), of the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS). The RLDC is dedicated to developing new diagnostics and therapeutics for patients with rare lung diseases, through collaboration between the NIH, patient organizations and clinical investigators.

==Eponym==
It is named for [[František Heřmanský]] (1916–1980) and [[Pavel Pudlák]] (1927–1993).<ref>{{WhoNamedIt|synd|2220}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |pmid=13618373 |date=1 February 1959|author=Hermansky, F; Pudlak, P |title=Albinism associated with hemorrhagic diathesis and unusual pigmented reticular cells in the bone marrow: report of two cases with histochemical studies. |volume=14 |issue=2 |pages=162–9 |issn=0006-4971 |journal=Blood |url=http://www.bloodjournal.org/cgi/pmidlookup?view=long&pmid=13618373 |format=Free full text }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |pmid= |date=19 June 2013 |author=Khalid Al Aboud, Daifullah Al Aboud |title= EPONYMS IN THE DERMATOLOGY LITERATURE LINKED TO CZECH REPUBLIC |volume=4 |issue=2 |pages=426–8 |issn= |journal=Our Dermatology |url=http://www.odermatol.com/issue-in-html/2013-3-2s-eponymscz/ |format=Free full text }}</ref>
