Abstract
Isovaleric acidemia is an inborn metabolic disorder of leucine catabolism, characterized by accumulation of isovaleric acid (IVA) in tissue and body fluids of affected patients. These patients present seizures, mental retardation and other severe neurologic symptoms, as well as acute central nervous system degeneration. Biochemically, patients present metabolic acidosis with mild ketonuri…
