Metabolic Stroke: Atypical Presentation of Succinic Semialdehyde Dehydrogenase Deficiency
ABSTRACT Succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive neurometabolic disorder caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in ALDH5A1, encoding the mitochondrial enzyme SSADH. This enzyme catalyses the conversion of succinic semialdehyde to succinic acid in the γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) degradation pathway.
