Maple Syrup Urine Disease
Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is a rare but serious inherited disorder in which the body fails to process amino acids properly. It affects one in 185,000 infants throughout the world.
Symptoms of this condition frequently occur shortly after birth and may include sweet-smelling urine, lethargy, vomiting and poor eating as well as abnormal movements and delayed development. Sometimes a milder form of MSUD develops later in infancy or during childhood. Seizures, coma and death may result if this disorder remains undiagnosed.10‘Maple Syrup Urine Disease: MedlinePlus Genetics.’ MedlinePlus, U.S. National Library of Medicine, 18 Aug. 2020, medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/maple-syrup-urine-disease/#inheritance
