Abnormal brain lactate level by MRS

MedGen UID:
1369712
•Concept ID:
C4476564
•
Finding
Synonym: Abnormal lactate level by magnetic resonance spectroscopy
 
HPO: HP:0025045

Definition

A deviation from normal of the level of lactate in the brain identified by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). [from HPO]

Conditions with this feature

COG8-congenital disorder of glycosylation
MedGen UID:
409971
•Concept ID:
C1970021
•
Disease or Syndrome
Syndrome with characteristics of severe psychomotor retardation, failure to thrive and intolerance to wheat and dairy products. So far, only two cases have been described. The disease is caused by mutations in the COG8 gene, which encodes a subunit of the COG complex. This complex is involved vesicle transport in the Golgi apparatus.
