Popis: Background Phenylketonuria (PKU) is one of the most common inherited metabolic disorders. The molecular pathway of neurological damage is not yet sufficiently understood. To date, there is a lack information about cardiac involvement related to the disease. This study aims to characterize cardiac morphology and function in adult patients with PKU using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR).
