The urine of a child who presented with hyperammonemia was found to contain elevated levels of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid, 3-methylglutaconic acid and 3-methylglutaric acid. An increased excretion of these organic acids has been reported previously in a child with 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase
