Short report: Hyperammonaemia in critically ill septic infants.

P McEwan1, D Simpson, J M Kirk, D G Barr, K J McKenzie.   

Abstract

Three infants with subphrenic abscess, pyonephrosis, and obstructive ureterocoele respectively had grossly increased concentrations of plasma ammonia. This was considered to be a result of infections with urea splitting organisms. All died in spite of intensive care support, including specific measures to reduce plasma ammonia.
