Olivia S. was born with a rare recessive disorder called tyrosinemia.The next day, Olivia M. was born in a neighboringstate with the same disorder. Tyrosinemia is causedby the lack of an enzyme in the degradation pathway of the aminoacid tyrosine. Accumulation of metabolic intermediates causesprogressive liver dysfunction and kidney problems. One-year-oldOlivia S. is healthy and has no symptoms of the disorder. At thesame age, Olivia M. developed total liver failure. Olivia S. was bornin a state where newborns are tested for tyrosinemia, but Olivia M.was born in a state where newborns are not tested for this disorder.A week after diagnosis, Olivia S. was placed on a low-tyrosinediet and prescribed a drug to block the accumulation of metabolicintermediates. Olivia M. was not diagnosed until she was in liverfailure; she then was placed on a low-tyrosine diet, was prescribedmedication, and underwent a liver transplant.
