    Description / Table of Contents: Summary The case of a four-year old boy with trisomy 13 is described. The boy does not have detectable cardiac or cerebral malformations. However, he suffers from severe psychomotor delay, muscular hypotonia, cerebral convulsions, bilateral buphthalmos and bilateral optic nerve atrophy. Trisomy 13 was detected in all mitoses analysed in lymphocytes and in skin fibroblasts. Discussion: This case should serve as a reminder that trisomy 13 is compatible with long-term survival.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Der Fall eines 4 jährigen Jungen mit Trisomie 13 wird beschrieben. Der Junge weist keine erkennbaren kardialen oder zerebralen Mißbildungen auf, leidet jedoch an schwerer psychomotorischer Retardierung, Muskelhypotonie, zerebralen Krampfanfällen, bilateralem Buphthalmus und bilateraler Atrophie des N. opticus. In allen analysierten Mitosen aus Lymphozyten und Hautfibroblasten fand sich eine Trisomie 13. Diskussion: Dieser Fall soll daran erinnern, daß Trisomie 13 mit einem langfristigen Überleben vereinbar ist.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency is the most frequent inborn error of metabolism of the urea cycle which causes severe hyperammonemia in hemizygous boys within the first days of life. However, also girls heterozygous for this x-linked disorder can develop life-threatening hyperammonemia and chronic progressive encephalopathy. This paper describes the emergency treatment of first manifestations including all necessary diagnostic measures as well as the longterm therapy and its control. Enclosed are the details about the allopurinol challenge test for the detection of heterozygous women and girls.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Der Ornithintranscarbamylasemangel ist der häufigste angeborene Defekt des Harnstoffzyklus. Er wird im Gegensatz zu anderen akut verlaufenden angeborenen Stoffwechselerkrankungen X-chromosomal vererbt. Betroffene Jungen zeigen in der Regel schon in den ersten Lebenstagen infolge einer sich ausbildenden Hyperammonämie schwere klinische Symptome wie zunehmende Lethargie, Erbrechen, Krampfanfälle und Koma. Aber auch Überträgerinnen können lebensbedrohliche Hyperammonämien sowie progrediente chronische Enzephalopathiesyndrome entwickeln. Die Notfallbehandlung bei der Erstmanifestation inklusive aller diagnostischer/differentialdiagnostischer Maßnahmen sowie die Langzeittherapie und Stoffwechselüberwachung dieser Patienten sind in der vorliegenden Arbeit beschrieben. Zusätzlich wird über den Allopurinoltest berichtet, der zur Erfassung Heterozygoter verwendet wird.

    Notes: Abstract This report comprises ten children with hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia who did not respond to medical management and required surgical treatment. Eight were infants under the age of 1 year while two were children aged 3.5 and 5 years, respectively. In each case the diagnosis of nesidioblastosis was confirmed at operation by frozen section histopathological examination and a 95% pancreatectomy was performed. No patient developed recurrent hypoglycaemia, although transient hyperglycaemia, which temporarily required insulin therapy, appeared in five children. All ten patients are now normoglycaemic without treatment.

    Notes: Abstract Late-onset acid maltase deficiency or glycogen storage disease type II (GSD II) is a rare disorder of intralysosomal glycogen metabolism, resulting in progressive myopathy that is secondary to increased muscle protein breakdown. Stable isotope studies in the postabsorptive state have confirmed that mean protein breakdown in GSD II is increased by 31% compared to control subjects, 6.86 versus 4,69 g/kg per day, that mean protein balance is reduced in GSD II –1.32 versus –1.06 g/kg per day. Indirect calorimetry has demonstrated an increase in mean resting energy expenditure in GSD II, 41.8 versus 31.2 kcal/kg per day. Compliance following the introduction of a high-protein diet is often poor due to the large quantities of protein necessary and to the high caloric intake with the consequent weight gain. Only 25% of all reported subjects with GSD II showed an improvement of muscle or respiratory function after a high-protein diet. Careful evaluation of the underlying pathophysiological changes in GSD II is necessary to develop more logical and therefore more beneficial forms of dietary treatment.

    Notes: Abstract A 3-month-old girl presented with anorexia, failure to thrive and drowsiness. She was mildly icteric with hepatomegaly and peripheral oedema. Disordered liver function tests were associated with the biopsy appearances of a giant cell hepatitis and with a Fanconi syndrome. At the age of 16 weeks she collapsed with profound hypoglycaemia. Fasting also provoked hypoglycaemia with lactic acidaemia. She became increasingly irritable and hypotonic and, although initially liver and renal function improved, she deteriorated and died of hepatocellular failure and septicaemia. A post-mortem revealed massive fatty degeneration of the liver. The activity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase in her cultured skin fibroblasts was 16% of controls. Her brother died at the age of 4 weeks of sudden infant death syndrome.

    Notes: Abstract Gut bacteria have been implicated as an important source of propionate in children with inborn errors of propionate metabolism. We have investigated the value of oral metronidazole (10–20 mg/kg per day) in five children with methylmalonic acidaemia (MMA) and four with propionic acidaemia (PA). Urinary excretion of propionate metabolites fell significantly during the treatment in all subjects, the mean decrease being 41% (range 12–76,P〈0.01), while mean plasma propionate was reduced from 45.0 μmol/l to 25.1 μmol/l (P〈0.05). Substantial reduction of the gut bacterial population was confirmed by lactulose breath hydrogen tests and by stool culture, and stool propionate concentration was reduced in most subjects. Clinical improvement was noted in three children. These results suggest that long-term antimicrobial therapy may offer significant clinical benefit to children with inborn errors of propionate metabolism.

    Notes: Abstract Following the death of a patient with propionic acidaemia with a cardiomyopathy we reviewed 19 patients with the same disorder for evidence of cardiomyopathy. Six patients were found to meet the diagnostic criteria. Three patients died and in the other three the cardiac diease resolved completely. All patients were treated with standard therapy and some receivedl-carnitine but this did not seem to influence the eventual outcome. Cardiomyopathy is an important complication of propionic acidaemia and may be rapidly fatal.
