Multiple acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency: diagnosis by acyl-carnitine analysis of a 12-year-old newborn screening card

N K Poplawski et al. J Pediatr. 1999 Jun.

Abstract

We report a family who experienced an unexplained neonatal death. Twelve years after the death, we retrospectively diagnosed multiple acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency by demonstrating an abnormal acyl-carnitine profile in the child's archived newborn screening card, using tandem mass spectrometry.
