Summary

We report a case of Wolman's disease that is apparently the first to be reported in a Jordanian infant. The clue to diagnosis was the radiological evidence of bilateral adrenal calcifications and foam cells in bone marrow. The disease was confirmed by skin fibroblast culture which showed decreased ‘acid esterase’ activity.
