  • Title: [Hereditary intolerance to fructose in infants. Presentation of a clinical case].
    Author: Livolsi P.
    Journal: Pediatr Med Chir; 1988; 10(6):649-52. PubMed ID: 3244544.
    Abstract:
    One case of hereditary fructose intolerance is examined: the disease was known exceptionally early when the baby was about two months old. The case is classified and described with the metabolic alterations typical of the syndrome and then it is examined stressing the difficulty in diagnosing it at such an early stage of the baby's life and the possibility of worsening the symptoms with unsuitable treatments (i.e. use of solutions fructose-containing). The author concludes advising to use the utmost care in feeding the baby since its birth in order to avoid an early administration of potentially dangerous carbohydrates.
