Diagnosis: beaked nose, maxillary hypoplasia, downslanting palpebral fissures, PDA, broad thumbs
Rubinstein-Taybi ## Footnote * VSD or ASD seem equally common (25-35% have some cardiac defect); speech difficulties, increased malignancies* * 16p13.3 deletion of CREB (cAMP-regulated enhancer binding)*
116
Diagnosis: aniridia, cryptorchidism, cognitive impairment, Wilm's
WAGR (Wilm's, aniridia, GU abnormalities [less apparent in females], retardation)\* ## Footnote * 11p13 deletion (other syndrome from chr11 deletion is Beckwith-Wiedemann)* * \*No cardiac malformations associated*
117
Diagnosis: elfin-like facies (thin upper lip), supravalvar aortic stenosis, hypocalcemia
William's syndrome * Hypocalcemia's transient; pulmonic stenosis/peripheral pulmonic stenosis are also common* * 7q11.23 deletion, elastin gene (**_E_**lfin facies from **_e_**lastin gene)* (https://www.physio-pedia.com/William%27s_Syndrome)

119
What to supplement with in: FAOD (fatty acid oxidation defects)
Carnitine True for MCHAD (most common FAOD) and carnitine deficiency (but definitely won’t hurt anything in LCHAD)
120
How to manage: Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD)
Restrict branched AA (isoleucine, leucine, valine) Supplement with thiamine (B1 for BRANCHED enzyme defect)
121
How to manage: Phenylketonuria
Restrict phenylalanine (essential AA so can’t cut out!) May need tetrahydropterin (BH4) supplementation
122
How to manage: Tyrosinemia
Restrict phenylalanine, tyrosine, methionine (most are essential AA) Nitisinone (decreases toxic metabolites)
123
What is nitisinone for?
Tyrosinemia Inhibits phenylpyruvate metabolism so decreases toxic metabolites (e.g. fumarylacetate)
124
What is the diagnosis: Elevated succinylacetate (serum and urine)
Tyrosinemia Will also see elevated serum tyrosine and methionine with NORMAL phenylalanine
125
What is the diagnosis: Elevated methionine, excess homocysteine
Homocystinuria
126
How to manage: Homocystinuria
High pyridoxine Decrease methionine (remember it’s an essential AA!) Supplement cysteine and folate
