Inborn Errors of metabolism comprise a large number of rare conditions with a collective incidence of around 1/2000 newborns. Many disorders are treatable provided that a correct diagnosis can be established in time, and for many diseases novel therapies are being developed. Without treatment, many of the conditions result in early death or severe irreversible handicaps. The Centre for Inherited Metabolic Diseases, CMMS at Karolinska university hospital, is an integrated expert center where clinical specialists work closely together with experts in laboratory medicine, combining clinical genetics, clinical chemistry, pediatrics, neurology, and endocrinology. The center serves the whole Swedish population with diagnostics and expert advice on IEM and has a broad arsenal of biochemical investigations designed to detect defects in intermediary metabolism.
