Cardiomyopathy in propionic acidaemia

Abstract: Following the death of a patient with propionic acidaemia with a cardiomyopathy we reviewed 19 patients with the same disorder for evidence of cardiomyopathy. Six patients were found to meet the diagnostic criteria. Three patients died and in the other three the cardiac disease resolved completely. All patients were treated with standard therapy and some received L-carnitine but this did not seem to influence the eventual outcome. Cardiomyopathy is an important complication of propionic acidaemia and may be ra… Show more

“…Patients who survive suffer from recurrent metabolic instability and can develop multisystemic complications including neurological impairment (Haas et al, 1995;Nyhan et al, 1999), cardiomyopathy (Massoud and Leonard, 1993;Bhan and Brody, 2001;Mardach et al, 2005), and pancreatitis (Kahler et al, 1994). Typical laboratory abnormalities include severe metabolic acidosis, hyperglycinemia, ketosis, and marked hyperammonemia that may require dialysis.…”

“…End-organ involvement that impacts perioperative care may affect the cardiac, respiratory, and CNS. Cardiomyopathy and sudden cardiac death have been described as complications of several metabolic disorders including PA [13][14][15][16]. Cardiac involvement with car-Anesthesia and Propionic Acidemia J Med Cases.…”

“…2015;6(9):420-425 diogenic shock may be the presenting symptom of PA [17]. Cardiac involvement is postulated to be the result of the direct toxic effects of propionic acid and its metabolites or secondary deficiencies of carnitine or selenium [2,15,18]. Acute cardiac decompensation can also occur in association with episodic metabolic decompensation and acidosis.…”

“…Endogenous organic acid accumulation can perturb mitochondrial homeostasis by directly inhibiting OXPHOS consequent energy production [CheemaDhadli et al, 1975;Gregersen, 1981;Evangeliou et al, 1985;Massoud and Leonard, 1993;Okun et al, 2002;Baumgartner et al, 2007] or indirectly, via decreased expression of mtDNA of the electron transfer complexes I-IV [Mardach et al, 2005;Schwab et al, 2006;Sperl et al, 2006;de Keyzer et al, 2009]. Further, abnormal mitochondrial structure has also been observed, especially in the skeletal muscle, heart and liver in patients with organic acidurias [Mardach et al, 2005;Schwab et al, 2006;de Keyzer et al, 2009;Wortmann et al, 2009].…”
