Ornithine carbamoyl transferase deficiency: a neuropathological study.

Abstract:

:A detailed autopsy study of three children with ornithine carbamoyl transferase (OCT) deficiency is presented. Although variable in extent, a basic pattern of neuropathological lesions is discernible. Case 1 shows gross cerebral atrophy, cases 2 and 3 milder lesions in the basal nuclei but also multiple cerebellar heterotopias and delayed myelination. We suggest that the findings may provide evidence that OCT deficiency can have a teratogenic effect in utero and suggest that there is a need to monitor the pregnancies of carriers of this disorder.

    abstract::Congenital nephrotic syndrome (CNS) is a heterogeneous group of diseases with different causes and prognoses. Two thirds of cases of NS in the first year of life are caused by mutations in four genes (NPHS1, NPHS2, WT1, and LAMB2). The mutation of WT1 gene can lead to Denys-Drash syndrome (DDS).
