Glutaric acidemia Type 1 is a condition due to inborn error of metabolism. It is generally characterized by elevated urinary excretion of glutaric acid, 3-hydroglutaric acid, and glutarylcarnitine. This can result in medical issues along with speech and language deficits. The extent of problems often varies from individual to individual. This study attempts to highlight the varying language characteristics and prognosis demonstrated in a child with glutaric acidemia Type 1. |
