Ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency is the most common inborn error of the urea cycle in infants. It is responsible for lethal neonatal hyperammonemia in males. The affected infants are manifested by vomiting, tachypnea, lethalgy and
hyperammonic coma that often leads to death. We report the male patient wht presented after 3 days of age with OTC deficiency. In this patient, the plasma ammonemia was controlled by the use of benzoate-phenylacetate-arginine regimen and the
peritoneal
dialysis.
