Descriptor citrulinemia
Entry term(s) citrulinemia 1
enfermedad por deficiencia de argininosuccinato sintasa
Scope note: Grupo de enfermedades relacionadas con deficiencia de la enzima ARGININOSUCCINATO SINTASA, con lo que se produce un aumento de las concentraciones séricas de CITRULINA. En los neonatos, las manifestaciones clínicas incluyen letargia, hipotonía, y CONVULSIONES. También ocurren formas más leves. Las formas infantiles y adultas pueden presentarse con episodios recurrentes de debilidad intermitente, letargia, ATAXIA, cambios de conducta, y DISARTRIA.

Scope note: A group of diseases related to a deficiency of the enzyme ARGININOSUCCINATE SYNTHASE which causes an elevation of serum levels of CITRULLINE. In neonates, clinical manifestations include lethargy, hypotonia, and SEIZURES. Milder forms also occur. Childhood and adult forms may present with recurrent episodes of intermittent weakness, lethargy, ATAXIA, behavioral changes, and DYSARTHRIA. (From Menkes, Textbook of Child Neurology, 5th ed, p49)
