Abstract

We report on a favourable pregnancy in a woman affected by mut<superscript>−</superscript> methylmalonic acidaemia. Under vitamin B<subscript>12</subscript> and carnitine therapy she remained symptom-free throughout pregnancy, labour, delivery and the postpartum period and gave birth to a term, healthy female newborn. At follow-up, the child shows normal somatic and neurocognitive development. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
