What is tyrosinemia?
Hereditary tyrosinemia is a genetic inborn error of metabolism associated with severe liver disease in infancy. The disease is inherited in an autosomal recessive fashion which means that in order to have the disease, a child must inherit two defective genes, one from each parent. In families where both parents are carriers of the gene for the disease, there is a one in four risk that a child will have tyrosinemia.
About one person in 100,000 is affected with tyrosinemia globally. However, the disease is particularly common in the region of Saguenay-Lac-St-Jean, Quebec where one person in 20 is a carrier of the defective gene, and one person in 1,846 is affected with the actual disease.
How is tyrosinemia caused?
Tyrosine is an amino acid which is found in most animal and plant proteins. The metabolism of tyrosine in humans takes place primarily in the liver.
Tyrosinemia is caused by an absence of the enzyme fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (FAH) which is essential in the metabolism of tyrosine. The absence of FAH leads to an accumulation of toxic metabolic products in various body tissues, which in turn results in progressive damage to the liver and kidneys.

General Discussion Tyrosinemia type I is a rare genetic metabolic disorder characterized by lack of the enzyme fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (FAH), which is needed to break down the amino acid tyrosine. Failure to properly break down tyrosine leads to abnormal accumulation of tyrosine and its metabolites in the liver, potentially resulting in severe liver disease. Tyrosine may also accumulate in the kidneys and central nervous system. Symptoms and physical findings associated with tyrosinemia type I include failure to gain weight and grow at the expected rate (failure to thrive), fever, diarrhea, vomiting, an abnormally enlarged liver (hepatomegaly), and yellowing of the skin and the whites of the eyes (jaundice). Tyrosinemia type I may progress to more serious complications such as severe liver disease. Tyrosinemia type one is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait.

About Tyrosinemia The treatment for tyrosinemia consists of a medication and special diet:

  • The diet of an individual with tyrosinemia consists of a special formula (also called medical food) with very little tyrosine combined with low protein foods.
    For some individuals, liver transplants may be necessary.
Regular monitoring of laboratory values is also part of treatment of tyrosinemia; it helps the health care team prescribe appropriate medication doses and formula composition. Regular monitoring includes:
  • Blood draw every 3 months Regular clinic appointments (this varies between clinics; often, monthly clinic visits for the first 6-12 months of life, and then visits every 3-6 months)
A child with appropriately managed blood tyrosine levels will act and look like other children of the same age. The only difference between children with tyrosinemia and other children is in the foods the child with tyrosinemia can and cannot eat and the medication.

http://www.idph.state.il.us/HealthWellness/fs/tyrosinemia.htm
Tyrosinemia
Definition
The tyrosinemias are a group of inherited disorders of amino acid metabolism, each caused by an enzymatic defect effecting tyrosine catabolism, that leads to elevated levels of tyrosine. Newborn screening in Illinois includes testing for the following type of tyrosinemia: Tyrosinemia type I (hepatorenal tyrosinemia or fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (FAH) deficiency)
Clinical Symptoms
There is variability in age of onset, depending on the type of tyrosinemia. In some forms of the disease, children may be clinically diagnosed in the neonatal period. Type I, the most severe form of tyrosinemia, results in the accumulation of tyrosine and its metabolites in the liver causing severe liver disease. Kidney function and peripheral nerves also are affected. Patients with Type I may have acute liver crisis, episodes of peripheral neuropathy and chronic liver disease. Affects on the kidneys can range from mild tubular dysfunction to renal failure. Early symptoms can include fever, diarrhea, vomiting, enlarged liver, jaundice, rickets, lethargy and irritability.
Newborn Screening and Definitive Diagnosis
In Illinois, newborn screening for tyrosinemia type I is performed using tandem mass spectrometry. False positive and false negative results may be possible with this screening. Infants with a presumptive positive screening test require prompt follow-up. Not all cases of tyrosinemia will be detected by newborn screening. When receiving a presumptive positive result, the clinician should immediately check on the clinical status of the baby and refer the infant to a metabolic disease specialist.
