Abstract
The presentation of long-chain fatty acid oxidation disorders (FAOD), unlike short and medium-chain disorders can be with secondary defects in mitochondrial function along with typical features of FAOD. We report an infant with Reye-like presentation and acylcarnitine profile suggestive of very-long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency who had lactic acidosis and urine gas chromatographic pattern of mitochondrial defects.Entities:
