Vignette A 32 year old pregnant woman developed over 3 weeks, after change in dietary intake, progressive neuropsychological disorders (apathy and apraxia) associated with behavior disorders. The patient rapidly worsened, had impaired consciousness and a coma. Neurological examination revealed a calm coma without focal signs. Biological tests showed hyperammonemia.

Ornithine Transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency. Accumulation of ammonia and amino-acids located upstream in the urea cycle1. Wide phenotypical spectrum. MRI shows T1 and T2 hypersignal, located in cerebral cortex, preferentially in peri-insular regions and the basal ganglia. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy shows increase levels of glutamine-glutamate and decrease levels of myo-inositol2. Treatment: eliminate the toxic metabolites by diverting nitrogen from urea cycle and chelating it. limit the production of toxic metabolites by reducing the intake of protein and avoiding catabolic process1. 1.
