Recurrent Hyperammonemic Encephalopathy in Adults with Citrin Deficiency: A Case Report of Two Genetically Confirmed Cases

AACD should be considered in adolescents and adults with otherwise unexplained recurrent hyperammonemic encephalopathy, especially when ammonia elevation is disproportionate to liver disease, and molecular testing enables definitive diagnosis and timely management.

From Misdiagnosis to Discovery: Expanding the Spectrum of Spliceosomopathies

A novel case of the PUS7-related disorder, which was diagnosed in a young girl referred to the authors' center following a misdiagnosis of Kleefstra Syndrome type 2, and its similarities with a main spliceosomopathy, ReNU syndrome are investigated, suggesting that disorders of pseudouridylation might possibly be includ...

Genetic Spectrum of Cholestasis in Tunisia and Diagnostic Yield of Next-Generation Sequencing: Case Series of 70 Patients.

Cholestasis is caused by genetic disorders in 25% of cases. Our study aimed to describe the clinical and genetic profile of cholestasis and to demonstrate the importance of next-generation sequencing (NGS) in the etiologic diagnosis of genetic cholestasis. We included patients referred for cholestasis over a 10-year pe...

Case Report: Persistent isolated hyperhomocysteinemia in an adolescent with celiac disease and homozygous MTHFR c.665C>T polymorphism: a multifactorial disturbance of one-carbon metabolism

Hyperhomocysteinemia in adolescence typically prompts investigation for classical inborn errors of sulfur amino acid metabolism, including cystathionine β-synthase deficiency and cobalamin-dependent remethylation disorders. However, persistent elevations may also arise from interactions between common genetic polymorph...

Diagnostic utility of whole exome sequencing in children with suspected genodermatoses: a single-center retrospective study

Introduction Genodermatoses are a group of monogenic inherited skin disorders characterized by marked genetic heterogeneity. Although the phenotype of many genodermatoses is readily recognizable on clinical examination, it is often insufficient to establish the precise molecular genetic etiology. Currently, the use of...

A-86: Auto Brewery Syndrome Vs. Neurodegenerative Disease Case Study

Objective: Objective: Auto-brewery syndrome (ABS) is an extremely rare (~100 cases) and likely underdiagnosed condition characterized by the microbial fermentation of carbohydrates in the gastrointestinal tracts, resulting in endogenous production of ethanol in the absence of alcohol consumption. Patients present as...
