Abstract

Propionic acidemia (PA) is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disease caused by the deficiency of propionyl-CoA carboxylase (PCC). PA affects the catabolism of branched chain amino acid and oddchain fatty acid then results in accumulation of propionic acid and other metabolites in plasma and urine. Catabolic stress such as infection, illness or any stress can precipitate cause acute metabolic decompensation, especially in the first years of life. Acute metabolic decompensation commonly calls for emergency treatment or admission and if the patient is in a serious condition, it can lead to coma or death. But frequent admissions or visiting the emergency room are much burden to the patients and their kins. And we experienced the propionic academia with a confirmed novel mutation and the patient suffered from frequent admission and visiting the emergency room. So, we tried the regular home carebased fluid therapy after securing a central venous line. Finally, we succeeded in preventing frequent admissions resulted from acute metabolic decompensation and could contribute to relieving the burden to the patient and their family.

프로피오닌산혈증은 propionyl-CoA carboxylase(PCC)의 결핍으로 인한 드문 상염색체 열성 유전 대사 질환이다. 이는 분지 아미노산 대사 장애로 혈장과 소변에서 프로피오닌산과 다른 대사 산물들의 축적되게 된다. 감염, 질병 혹은 스트레스 등 이화작용을 유발하는 스트레스적인 상황은 빈번하게 응급 혹은 입원 치료가 필요하며 심각한 경우에는 환자가 혼수나 사망에 이를 수도 있다. 하지만 이런 잦은 입원과 응급실 방문은 환자와 가족들에게 일상생활을 힘들게 하는 등 많은 스트레스가 된다. 이에 저자들은 프로피오닌산혈증 환자에게 중심정맥관을 유치하고 가정 간호를 통해 계획적으로 예방적인 수액 치료를 유지하여 급성 대사 위기로 인한 잦은 입원을 예방하였고 환자와 가족들의 부담을 줄이는데 기여할 수 있었다. 또한 이 환자에게서 확인된 돌연변이가 이전에 보고된 바 없는 새로운 돌연변이로 확인되어 이를 같이 보고하는 바다.
