VLCAD deficiency

Three forms of this disorder occur: a severe early-onset form with CARDIOMYOPATHY and high mortality; an intermediate form with childhood onset and hypoketotic hypoglycemia and more favorable outcome; and an adult-onset form characterized by MYOPATHY; RHABDOMYOLYSIS, and MYOGLOBINURIA after exercise or fasting. Germline mutations in the ACADS gene have been identified. OMIM: 201470
