Işıkay S, Yaman A, Ceylaner S. An infant with glutaric aciduria type IIc diagnosed with a novel mutation. Turk J Pediatr 2017; 59: 315-317. Glutaric aciduria type II is a rare inborn error of metabolism. The clinical picture is highly variable with symptoms ranging from acute metabolic decompensations to chronic, mainly muscular problems or even asymptomatic cases. Herein we described a 7-month...

Glutaric aciduria type I is an uncommon inborn error of metabolism. It is a serious disease, often with a fatal outcome. This study reports the presence of bilateral temporal fluid collections, probably bilateral arachnoid cysts, in association with glutaric aciduria type I. The CT and, when available, MR studies from five patients with this disorder were reviewed. Four of the patients had find...

Glutaric aciduria type 1 is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by a deficiency of glutaryi-CoA dehydrogenase. This disorder is characterized by progressive dystonia and dyskinesia. Laboratory evaluation demonstrates excessive levels of glutaric acid urinary excretion as well as absence of demonstrable functional levels of glutaryi-CoA in fibroblast cultures. We present the CT and ...

Glutaric aciduria type 1 is a rare inherited organic academia. Untreated patients characteristically develop dystonia secondary to striatal injury during early childhood, which results in high morbidity and mortality. In patients diagnosed during neonatal period, striatal injury can be prevented by metabolic treatment including low lysine diet, carnitine supplementation and aggressive emergency...

Glutaric aciduria type 1 (GA-1) is an autosomal recessive disorder of lysine, hydroxylysine, and tryptophan metabolism caused by deficiency of glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase. It results in the accumulation of 3-hydroxyglutaric and glutaric acid. Affected patients can present with brain atrophy and macrocephaly and with acute dystonia secondary to striatal degeneration in most cases triggered by an ...

glutaric acidemia, type i (ga i), was first described in 1975. the disease is caused by a genetic deficiency of the enzyme, glutaryl-coa dehydrogenase (gcd), which leads to the buildup of glutaric acid in the tissues and its excretion in the urine of affected patients. gcd is involved in the catabolism of the amino acids, lysine, hydroxylysine, and tryptophan. over 200 cases of ga i have been r...

objectiveglutaric aciduria type 1 (gal 1) is a cerebral organic academia, which manifests as encephalopathy with long-term neurological handicap. in this study, clinical presentation, neuroimaging, molecular finding of cgdh mutation of our patients were reviewed.materials and methodsthis was a descriptive and cross-sectional study. patients in whom gla1 were suspected by clinical manifestation,...

The case of an 8-year-old boy complaining easy tiredness, poor exercise tolerance and high CPK blood level is described. diagnosis glutaric aciduria type II was finally made.

Results We diagnosed 148 cases of IEM by urine GC-MS analysis, including 97 cases of organic acid disorders, 41 cases of amion acid disorders and 10 cases of fatty acid oxidative disorders. Methylmalonic aciduria (MMA) was most common (48 cases), followed by urea cycle disorder (21 cases), phenylketonuria (20 cases), propionic aciduria (11 cases), multiple carboxylase deficiency (8 cases), glut...
