We report a patient presenting with developmental delay, Leigh-like abnormalities on MRI and elevated 3-hydroxyisovaleric acid levels. Upon whole-exome sequencing, he was diagnosed with 3-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA hydrolase (HIBCH) deficiency, and hence subjected to specific dietary treatment. HIBCH deficiency should be considered in the differential diagnosis of Leigh-like disease and/or organic aciduria.
我们报告了一名患者,其表现为发育迟缓、MRI显示类似 Leigh 病的异常以及3-羟基异戊酸水平升高。经全外显子组测序,他被诊断为3-羟基异丁酰辅酶A水解酶(HIBCH)缺乏症,因此接受了特定的饮食治疗。在鉴别诊断类似 Leigh 病和/或有机酸尿症时应考虑HIBCH缺乏症。
