Combined liver-kidney transplantation in methylmalonic acidemia

W G van 't Hoff et al. J Pediatr. 1998 Jun.

Abstract

A 13-year-old boy with non-B12-responsive methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) had chronic renal failure. Hemodialysis led to symptomatic and biochemical improvement. He subsequently received a combined liver-kidney transplant. After 16 months of follow-up he has a normal lifestyle and a marked reduction in plasma and urine methylmalonate.
