We report two brothers with a glutaric aciduria type I (GA-I) identified by Glutaryl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency in skin fibroblasts. The onset of neurologic abnormalities was at 6 and 9 months of age as an acute Reye-like presentation in one. Because of the hyperlactacidemia, hyperlactatorrachia, mitochondrial abnormalities in muscular cells and a deficiency in complex I and IV of the respiratory chain in isolated mitochondria from muscle, a presumptive diagnosis of Leigh syndrome was made. We analyze the difference between both disorders. GA-I should be suspected in patients with acute dystonia and psychomotor regression, lactic acidosis and hypodensity of the basal ganglia.
