[Treatment of ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency in a child with glyceryl phenylbutyrate].

Glyceryl phenylbutyrate (GPB) serves as a long-term management medication for Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD), effectively controlling hyperammonemia, but there is a lack of experience in using this medicine in China. This article retrospectively analyzes the case of a child diagnosed with OTCD at Shanghai Children's Medical Center, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, including a review of related literature. After diagnosis, the patient was treated with GPB, followed by efficacy follow-up and pharmacological monitoring.
