The examination of the central nervous system (CNS) of an 11-month-old citrullinaemic patient revealed an ulegyria with a dense fibrillary gliosis and large amounts of lipid phagocytes. Alzheimer type 2 glial cells were present in intact cortical areas. While such cells were related to the insufficiently controlled hyperammonaemia, the ulegyria resulted from impaired oxygenation or impaired blood circulation, possibly influenced by the hyperammonaemia and citrullinaemia.
