The CF clinical phenotype shows wide variation ranging from severe disease in early childhood in those homozygous for the p.Phe508del mutation to absence of the vas deferens in otherwise healthy men homozygous for the p.Arg117His mutation %K Cystic Fibrosis %K Gene %K Mutation %K Iran %K Patients %K Genotype %K Phenotype %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6320558/
