This report describes a female with isolated 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase deficiency. She had a mild Reye-like episode, loss of scalp hair, psychomotor retardation, and an attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. The diagnosis was made at 13 years of age when she developed relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis with a malignant course. Treatment with steroids had initially a good therapeutic effect on the relapses. The response to interferon beta-la treatment was poor. On mitoxantrone treatment there was a considerable neurologic recovery. (c) 2007 by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
