* Microcephaly.
* Intellectual disabilities.
* Congenital heart disease (especially of left heart chambers).
* Renal malformations.
<u>Clinical manifestations in the mother:</u>
* Multiple abortions.
The fetus starts producing PAH hepatic enzyme by the 26<sup>th</sup> week of pregnancy, before this, the fetus depends on the mother to metabolize the Phe, and if she has a deficiency of PAH, the fetus will double the Phe blood levels of the mother, which is why women with PKU should follow strict diet and treatment before, and during the pregnancy.
* Ideal levels of Phe during pregnancy: <180 µmol/L
* Teratogenic and neurotoxic levels of Phe: 360 µmol/L

Overview

Classification

Subtypes of phenylketonuria

According to Phe levels PKU can be classified as:[1] [2]

  • Mild (mPKU): < 360 μmol/L
  • Moderate (moPKU): 360–1200 μmol/L
  • Classical (cPKU): >1200 μmol/L

Maternal phenylketonuria

Maternal Phenylketonuria (MPKU)[3] is a complication of PKU, caused by the teratogenic effects of high levels of Phe in the fetus. MPKU was first described by Charles Dent in 1956.
