      Case Previous Testing: " Genomic DNA from the patient was isolated from cultivated fibroblasts. Nine pairs of primers were designed from the published sequence of the OTC gene6,7 to allow amplification of all 10 exons including adjacent intron sequences. Single-strand conformational polymorphism analysis of the polymerase chain reaction–amplified individual exon 8 yielded an unusual migration pattern of exon 9

      Supplemental Data: Case report section Notes: Patient had a pregnancy 2 years prior and lost the baby. In this case report, She was a 14weeks pregnant(2nd pregnancy) 24yo . She died during this of severe hyperammonemia 5 days after being administered amino acids through parenteral nutrition. She developed signs of encephalopathy stage 4 with maximal dilated unresponsive pupils, brisk oculocephalic reflex, and severe hyperventilation, requiring mechanical ventilation. MRI revealed revealed diffuse cortical edema with loss of white to gray matter distinction. Increased excretion of Gly, Gln, Ser, Thr, and Lys was found in her urine. Treatment with benzoate was started but didn't save the patient.
