There have been a small number of patients reported with inherited disorders of
gluconeogenesis. We studied a female patient with fructose-1,6-diphosphatase
(FDPase; EC 3.1.3.11) deficiency (McKusick 22970), born of consanguineous
parents (inbreeding coefficient 1/32). Since 4 months of age, she presented with
many episodes of ketosis, lactic acidosis and hypoglycaemia, which, on two occasions,
were accompanied by seizures. Blood uric acid was abnormally high
(0.485 mmol L-1) but below normal in urine (1.85 mmol g creatinine).
