Summary
Details

PK Syndrome is a rare genetic-metabolic disorder-but its impact is far from rare in certain parts of the world. This book offers a, interdisciplinary exploration of PK Syndrome with a dedicated focus on Indian and Pakistani populations, where the condition is significantly more prevalent due to regional genetic patterns, historical marriage traditions, and structural healthcare disparities. Combining cutting-edge science with cultural insight, the book guides readers through the full landscape of PK Syndrome: its genetic foundations, metabolic mechanisms, clinical presentations, diagnostic challenges, long-term outcomes, and therapeutic strategies. It also examines the broader contexts in which the disorder unfolds-family structures, stigma, gender norms, migration, public health systems, and the lived experience of South Asian communities worldwide. From the complexities of variant interpretation to the realities of diagnostic inequity; from precision-medicine opportunities to the cultural dimensions of genetic counselling; from early childhood development to adult life and global policy-this book offers a uniquely integrated view of a condition that crosses borders, disciplines, and generations. Bremen University Press has published over 5,500 specialist books in various languages since 2005. December 2025
