BACKGROUND Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD) is an inborn error of urea cycle resulting in increased plasma levels of ammonia and glutamine and cerebral edema. However, the underlying mechanism of brain cytotoxicity remains controversial. Our objective is to present an unusual acute

OBJECTIVE The aims of this report are to 1) present a rare case of fatal cerebral edema associated with late-onset ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency in a juvenile male patient receiving valproic acid and 2) review the neuropathologic changes associated with the hyperammonemia. METHODS Case

A 19-year-old man had nausea, diarrhea, and general malaise the day before requesting emergency transport to his former primary physician. The patient became restless and had tonic seizures after admission. The patient was transferred to our hospital as there had been no improvement in his level of

We report on late-onset ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency in two families with mutations in the same codon, but different base substitutions. Onset of symptoms showed great variation, and five hemizygotes finally died. Clinical diagnosis was late and difficult. In family A, 1 patient also

Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD) is an X-linked urea cycle disorder with variable expressivity in heterozygous females. While liver function testing is often abnormal in patients with OTCD, liver failure is uncommon on presentation. A 13-month-old female with no significant past medical

Background: Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD) is an X- linked recessive disorder and the most common error of the urea cycle, caused by the mutations in the OTC gene. Due to X-inactivation, 15-20% of female carriers present symptoms of OTCD at late onset. Early diagnosis of

One of the X chromosome-linked disorders is ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency in the urea cycle. This disorder results in increased ammonia and glutamine in the blood. Accumulation of these metabolites without treatment causes brain edema, which often progresses to coma and death. This study

Ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency is an X-linked urea cycle defect. While hemizygous males typically present with hyperammonemic coma in infancy, reports of rare late-onset presentations exist, with poor outcomes in males up to 58 years old. Relatives with mutations identical to affected

Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD) is caused by an alteration of urea synthesis, linked with partial modification of the X-chromosome, whose clinical manifestations are: lethargy, nausea, vomiting and cerebral edema. While in newborn males OTCD presents with hyperammoniemia leading to

Ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency, the most common inherited urea cycle disorder, shows a spectrum of severity ranging from severe neonatal hyperammonemic coma to no symptoms among adults. We report on the multiorgan procurement from a donor who died of cerebral edema due to unrecognized

BACKGROUND Ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency is the most frequent innate disorder of the urea cycle and is X-chromosome linked. The disease normally manifests itself shortly after birth and is fatal when untreated. Due to the different expression and X-chromosomal inheritance the
