  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

Adult-onset citrullinemia is a rare hereditary metabolic disorder characterized by highly increased concentration of citrulline and ammonia in the plasma, which is ascribed to a deficiency of argininosuccinate synthetase (ASS), one of the urea cycle enzymes mainly located in the liver. Neurological manifestations closely resemble those of hepatic encephalopathy and in the past, most patients usually followed rapidly deteriorating clinical courses and died of severe brain edema within a few years of onset, but some patients with this disease have recently been treated with liver transplantation, showing good outcomes.
