BACKGROUND: Malonyl-CoA decarboxylase deficiency (MLYCDD) is an ultra-rare inherited metabolic disorder, characterized by multi-organ involvement manifesting during the first few months of life. Our aim was to describe the clinical, biochemical, and genetic characteristics of patients with later-onset MLYCDD.
METHODS: Clinical and biochemical characteristics of two patients aged 48 and 29 years with a confirmed molecular diagnosis of MLYCDD were examined. A systematic review of published studies describing the characteristics of cardiovascular involvement of patients with MLYCDD was performed.
RESULTS: Two patients diagnosed with MLYCDD during adulthood were identified. The first presented with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and ventricular pre-excitation and the second with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and mild-to-moderate left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction. No other clinical manifestation typical of MLYCDD was observed. Both patients showed slight increase in malonylcarnitine in their plasma acylcarnitine profile, and a reduction in malonyl-CoA decarboxylase activity. During follow-up, no deterioration of LV systolic function was observed. The systematic review identified 33 individuals with a genetic diagnosis of MLYCDD (median age 6 months [IQR 1-12], 22 males [67%]). Cardiovascular involvement was observed in 64% of cases, with DCM the most common phenotype. A modified diet combined with levocarnitine supplementation resulted in the improvement of LV systolic function in most cases. After a median follow-up of 8 months, 3 patients died (two heart failure-related and one arrhythmic death).
CONCLUSIONS: For the first time this study describes a later-onset phenotype of MLYCDD patients, characterized by single-organ involvement, mildly reduced enzyme activity, and a benign clinical course.
