Kwashiorkor
Kwashiorkor (“kwah-shee-awr-kawr” or “-ker”, IPA: /kwɑːʃiˈɔːrkɔːr/, /kwɑːʃiˈɔːrkər/) is a form of severe protein malnutrition characterized by edema and an enlarged liver with fatty infiltrates. It is caused by sufficient calorie intake, but with insufficient protein consumption, which distinguishes it from marasmus. Kwashiorkor cases occur primarily in areas of famine or poor food supply; cases in the developed world are rare. It occurs in children more than 1 year of age. Usually children of age around 5 years are affected by it.
