ABSTRACT
Background: Inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) cause a significant morbidity and
mortality suffered by pediatric hospital burden.
Objective: To analyze the quantity, type, cause, age at occurrence and evolution of the
hospitalizations of patients with inborn errors of intermediate metabolism, in a third
level pediatric care center.
Material and Methods: Retrospective analysis of the hospitalizations of a case series
with IEM. Admission and discharge causes, clinical, demographic data, time and date
hospitalizations and service that provided care were collected.
Results: In a 36 months period, 100 hospitalizations (88 urgent and 12 elective)
occurred in 39 patients. Metabolic decompensations associated with gastrointestinal
symptoms, infectious diseases and respiratory manifestations and propionate defects
were the main causes of urgent hospitalizations (47.7%). 3 patients died (tyrosinemia,
glutaric acidemia II and maple syrup urine disease). The main cause of elective hospitalization
was for gastrostomy. Only 20.6% of patients had newborn screening for
IEM. In our reference center, the patients with IEM contribute to 2.6% of emergency
hospitalizations and 0.42% of total hospital admissions, with a mortality of 8.8%.
We documented 2.6 hospitalizations of IEM patients per month, being most of them
emergencies due to metabolic decompensation
Conclusions: Pediatricians must be trained to care for these patients and institutions
must have human and economic resources to care for them.
