The phenotypic spectrum of organic acidurias and urea cycle disorders. Part 2: the evolving clinical phenotype

Abstract

Neurologic impairment is common in OAD and UCD, whereas the involvement of other organs (heart, liver, kidneys, eyes) follows a disease-specific pattern. The identification of unexpected chronic renal failure in GA1 and ASL deficiency emphasizes the importance of a systematic follow-up in patients with rare diseases.
