Short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (SCADD)is a rare autosomal recessive inborn error of mitochondrialfatty acid oxidation. It caused by rare mutations as well aspolymorphic susceptibility variants. We describe the caseof a 1-year-old male patient who had growth and mentalretardation, seizures, fever since infancy. Urinary GC/MSshowed elevated levels of ethylmalonic acid. Plasma acyl-carnitines on MS/MS, elevations of C4-cartinitine are con-sistently present. The two polymorphic susceptibilityvariants of SCAD gene, c.625G>A and c.322G>A, wasdetected. As its highly variable clinical characteristics,there is no related report in China. This report broadensthe phenotype and genotype of SCAD deficiency in Chinaand underlines the difficulty of diagnosis.
