History |
First child of consanguineous parents. After four months of normal development, the girl presented with retardation of neurologic development and muscular hypotonia. MRI showed dilated ventricles and a small arachnoid cyst. Metabolic investigation, highly increased levels of glutaric acid and 3-hydroxyglutaric acid in urine, led to the diagnosis of glutaric aciduria type 1. Lysine-reduced diet. |
