Pancreatic insuYciency appears to correlate with diVerent gene mutations at the CFTR locus21 (for example R117H, R334W, R347P, P574H), but to date there has not been a satisfactory correlation between a high chloride conduction (that is a high sweat test result )22 or severe pulmonary disease and genotyping.23 The most surprising finding to emanate from the numerous phenotype-genotype correlation studies that festoon the cystic fibrosis literature, is a new understanding of the wide phenotypic range that an individual, homozygous for a mutation in the CFTR gene, can present.
