Fat oxidation defect presenting with overwhelming ketonuria.

E Wraige1, M P Champion, C Turner, R N Dalton.   

Abstract

Ketonuria accompanying hypoglycaemia is conventionally thought to exclude fat oxidation defects. We describe a 2 year old girl with hypoglycaemic encephalopathy in whom a diagnosis of very long chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase deficiency was suggested on the basis of acylcarnitine analysis despite massive ketonuria.
