Carnitine palmitoyl transferase (CPT) II deficiency is usually manifested around puberty by exercise induced myoglobinuria. Two Ashkenazi Jewish sibs with the rare antenatal form of CPTII deficiency are reported. On the 5th gestational month periventricular calcifications and markedly enlarged kidneys were found in both of them. The activity of CPTII in lymphocytes was undetectable and both sibs were homozygous for the 1237delAG mutation. Because of the serious consequences of homozygosity for this mutation, genotype determination of all Ashkenazi patients with the adolescent form of CPTII deficiency is warranted.
