ABSTRACT: Purpose
Mitochondrial trifunctional protein deficiency (TFPD) and isolated long chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (LCHADD) are two related defects of fatty acid β -oxidation. While NBS has decreased mortality, morbidity remains significant. Additionally, the relationship of genotype to clinical outcome remains unclear. To better understand these issues, we collected natural history data for these conditions by reviewing seven years of retrospective data from 45 cases of TFPD or LCHADD in the Inborn Errors of Metabolism - Information System.Methods
Available data included age at database entry, last datapoint, and development of various complications. Data were analyzed by clinical assigned diagnosis (LCHADD or TFPD), subdivided by method of ascertainment (new
