Hyperammonemia i (carbamyl phosphate synthetase deficiency; hyperammonemia ii; ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency; hyperammonemia-hyperornithinemia-homocitrullinuria syndrome)


Hyperammonemia I (Carbamyl Phosphate Synthetase Deficiency; Hyperammonemia II; Ornithine Transcarbamylase Deficiency; Hyperammonemia-Hyperornithinemia-Homocitrullinuria Syndrome)

General: Hyperammonemias I a 737g68h nd II are due to errors at or near the 'start' of the urea cycle; in hyperammonemia I, a decrease in the activity of the enzyme carbamyl phosphate synthetase, responsible for the first step of the cycle, results in the accumulation of excess ammonia; in hyperammonemia II, the defect is in ornithine transcarbamylase; type II occurs only in infants.

Ocular: Ptosis and visual loss; retinal depigmentation and chorioretinal thinning.

Clinical: Vomiting; screaming; confusion; lethargy; ataxia; mental retardation; atrophy of cerebral cortex; decreased vibration sense; bucco-faciolingual dyspraxia; learning difficulties; widespread manifestations in the central and peripheral nervous systems.
