[Multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency. Report of 2 siblings].
The authors report on two siblings with a multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency. The first child died from a Reye's syndrome when he was 9 month-old. The diagnosis was made in the neonatal period in his brother. Early treatment with glucose and carnitine should prevent acute attacks.
