An 18-year-old mentally and physically retarded boy, suffering from episodes of anorexia, vomiting, coma and convulsion which have been severer with advance in age, had periodic hyperammonemia, hyperlysinemia and homocitrullinuria. Blood cell arginase activity of the patient on normal diet was
A 3 year old mentally retarded boy with convulsions and a disturbed motor, speech and social development is presented. A persistent hyperlysinaemia, lysinuria and saccharopinuria was found. Treatment with a diet restricted in lysine seems favourable.
An infant with the acute neonatal form of pyruvate carboxylase deficiency (cross-reacting material negative) presented with severe intractable lactic acidosis within 4 h after birth. He also had hyperammonemia, hypercitrullinemia, and hyperlysinemia. Plasma glutamine was not elevated. He had a
Our aim was to report two new cases of hyperlysinemia type I describing the clinical, biochemical and molecular features of the disease and the outcome of lysine restriction. Two children presented with febrile seizures followed by developmental delay, clumsiness and epilepsy. At age 2 and 8 years a
We present clinical, biochemical and cranial magnetic resonance imaging data of six pediatric patients with L-2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria. All the children have the same ethic origin and lived in the northern area of Portugal. Our findings reinforce the described phenotype of this rare metabolic
