Propionic acidemia is a recessively inherited disorder of organic acid metabolism characterized by a spectrum of clinical and biochemical findings. Metabolic acidosis is a key feature of this disease and is useful in differentiating it from nonketotic hyperglycinemia. This case report is presented because significant metabolic acidosis was not a prominent or persistent finding in this patient.
