Oxoglutaricaciduria
MONDO:0008759A rare, genetic, inborn error of metabolism disorder characterized by neonatal-onset of developmental delay, hypotonia, hepatomegaly, lactic acidemia, increased creatine kinase levels, elevated alpha-ketoglutaric acid in urine, and a decreased plasma beta-hydroxybutyrate-to-acetoacetate ratio. Pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency can be associated, leading to hypoglycemia and neurologic anomalies, including seizures.
Also known as: Alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase deficiency, oxoglutarate dehydrogenase deficiency, 2 alpha ketoglutarate dehydrogenase deficiency, 2-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase deficiency, ALPHA-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase deficiency, Alpha KGD deficiency, Alpha-Kgd deficiency, Oxoglutaric aciduria
