holocarboxylase synthetase deficiency/癲癇性発作

Holocarboxylase synthetase deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of biotin metabolism. Clinical manifestations usually present within the first few days of life and include severe acidosis, feeding difficulties, breathing abnormalities, vomiting, seizures, progressive loss of

Holocarboxylase synthetase deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder of biotin metabolism resulting in multiple carboxylase deficiency. The typical presentation described in the medical literature is of neonatal onset within hours to weeks of birth with emesis, hypotonia, lethargy, seizures,

BACKGROUND Multiple carboxylase deficiency is a rare cause of progressive encephalopathy. There are 2 forms: the neonatal-onset form of holocarboxylase synthetase deficiency and the late-onset form of biotinidase deficiency. This report describes a case of biotinidase deficiency. METHODS A boy began

Biotinidase deficiency and holocarboxylase synthetase deficiency are two autosomal recessively inherited disorders of biotin metabolism affecting children below the age of two years. Both cause multiple carboxylase deficiency resulting in defects of fatty acid synthesis, gluconeogenesis and amino
