    Notes: Abstract A 10-month-old male infant with vitamin B12 non-responsive methylmalonic acidaemia is reported. Laboratory results revealed hyperkalaemic, hyperchloraemic, metabolic acidosis with slight azotaemia. The urinary pH decreased (below 5.5) to compensate for acidaemia. Levels of plasma renin activity and plasma aldosterone concentration were low. The renal biopsy showed tubulo-interstitial nephritis. We suggested the diagnosis of type 4 renal tubular acidosis, subtype 2, i.e. hyporeninaemic hypoaldosteronism. We suggest that chronic renal disease may be a common complication of methylmalonic acidaemia.

    Notes: Abstract A case of chronic pancreatitis in an 8-year-old boy with glycogen storage disease type 1a (GSD 1a) is presented. This patient had a history of hyperlipidaemia unresponsive to dietary therapy, e.g., a carbohydraterich diet, uncooked cornstarch, and nocturnal intragastric tube feedings. He had recently suffered bouts of abdominal pain and diarrhoea. Serum amylase and trypsin were elevated, abdominal CT revealed the presence of a pseudocyst of the pancreas. The presence of chronic pancreatitis was confirmed by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and an infected pseudocyst was removed at laparotomy.
