3-Hydroxyisobutyric aciduria: phenotypic heterogeneity within a single family.

Abstract excerpt

3-Hydroxyisobutyric aciduria is a rare biochemical finding associated with a variable clinical phenotype in the literature. We report two siblings excreting abnormal levels of this metabolite from a consanguineous family who manifested distinct phenotypic variation. We speculate as to whether this biochemical anomaly may simply be an incidental finding and suggest that pre-natal counselling on the basis of...
