Bicarnesine-treated carnitine deficient myopathy: clinico-chemical investigations.
1992
Authors report on a Bicarnesine replacement therapy in an infant girl patient suffering from carnitine deficient myopathy diagnosed at 1 year of age. The hypotonic patient's motoric functions improved and she became able to walk as a result of therapy applied, but the pathological process generalized to encephalomyopathy. Free and esterified carnitine were determined from the serum and muscle biopsymaterial. After the Bicarnesine-supplementation the serum carnitine fractions elevated.
