HADH deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder that manifests in childhood and is characterized by muscular(hypotonia, myoglobinuria), cerebral (encephalopathia), hepatic (fulminant hepatic failure, centrilobular necrosis and lipid accumulation), and metabolic (hypoglycemia) symptoms.
The disorder is causes by beta-cell responsiveness to aminoacids, leucin in particular.[Error: Macro 'ref' doesn't exist]
Hypoglycemia responds to diazoxide. Dietary protein restriction is also recommended. Liver transplantation may be considered in patients with fulminant hepatic failure.
