The prevalence of 3-methylglutaconic aciduria was evaluated among children with developmental language disorders. A urine specimen was obtained from 40 children referred for developmental language delay to the Tel-Aviv Child Development Center during 12/96-6/97 and from 50 age-matched controls. Urine

Combined 3-methylglutaconic and 3-methylglutaric aciduria, one of the more common urinary organic acid abnormalities, has been observed in at least three clinical syndromes. We studied an additional seven patients with 3-methylglutaconic aciduria, four of whom were best categorized as having
3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric, 3-methylglutaconic and 3-methylglutaric acids can be non-specific indicators of metabolic disease.

The urine of a child who presented with hyperammonemia was found to contain elevated levels of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid, 3-methylglutaconic acid and 3-methylglutaric acid. An increased excretion of these organic acids has been reported previously in a child with 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase
