Recurrent hyperammonaemia in a patient with carbonic anhydrase VA deficiency

Abstract Carbonic anhydrase VA deficiency is a recently described inherited cause of paediatric hyperammonaemia. Most published cases describe patients with only one episode of hyperammonaemia whilst others report patients who had up to three metabolic crises with the first invariably being the most...

description Abstract Carbonic anhydrase VA deficiency is a recently described inherited cause of paediatric hyperammonaemia. Most published cases describe patients with only one episode of hyperammonaemia whilst others report patients who had up to three metabolic crises with the first invariably being the most severe. We describe a patient with carbonic anhydrase VA deficiency who experienced 7 hyperammonemic episodes over a 3‐year period, up to age 5 years 9 months. These episodes did not clearly decrease in severity over time. This report expands the clinical phenotype and the age window for metabolic crises associated with this condition.
