A brother and sister aged 11 and 17 years have been reported previously to have hyperargininaemia and arginase deficiency: they were treated with a semi-synthetic diet consisting of fat, carbohydrate, minerals, vitamins and essential amino acids in amounts equivalent to 0.55-0.65 g protein kg-1
Clinical characteristics: Arginase deficiency in untreated individuals is characterized by episodic hyperammonemia of variable degree that is infrequently severe enough to be life threatening or to cause death. Most commonly, birth and early childhood are normal.
A 20-year-old female underwent orthotopic liver transplantation for arginase deficiency, a urea cycle disorder. A hyperammonemic state was prevented by the administration of lipid and carbohydrate substrate and avoidance of protein loading (including human albumin) and prolonged fasting. Caval
