Key result
Improved infant survival in LCHADD creates an emerging adult population with unmet cardiac imaging needs.
Why the study?
Improved survival of infants with LCHADD due to newborn screening and metabolic management has led to new clinical questions in adult patients.
Population
One adult patient with LCHADD
Design
Serial cardiac MRI case study
Improved survival in LCHADD supports vigilant long-term monitoring for complications; leaves open optimal adult management strategies.
Newborn screening and metabolic management have improved the survival of infants with long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (LCHADD).1 That success has now enabled many patients to ...
