Overview
Phenylketonuria must be differentiated from other causes of intellectual developmental disability, seizures, anxiety/depression, and characteristic urine odors, such as other inborn errors of metabolism, cerebral palsy, inherited neurotransmitter disorders, and primary seizure disorders.
Differential Diagnosis
Phenylketonuria must be differentiated from other causes of intellectual developmental disability, seizures, anxiety/depression, and characteristic urine odors:[1][2][3][4]
Intellectual developmental disability
- Cerebral palsy
- Fatty acid oxidation disorders
- Lysosomal disorders
- Hyperhomocysteinemia
- Amino acid disorders
- Creatine deficiencies
Seizures
- Inherited neurotransmitter and non-neurotransmitter disorders
- Primary seizure disorders
Anxiety and/or depression
Characteristic urine odor
