Summary

Inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are disorders in which there is a block at some point in the normal metabolic pathway caused by a genetic defect of a specific enzyme. The number of diseases in humans known to be attributable to inherited point defects in metabolism now exceeds 500.While the diseases individually are rare, they collectively account for a significant proportion of neonatal and childhood morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis is important not only for treatment and prognostication but also for genetic counselling and antenatal diagnosis in subsequent pregnancies.
