Hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Although commonly seen as a milder elevation of homocysteine levels in adult patients, on rare occasions, the internist may face extremely elevated homocysteine levels (>100 µmol/L). In such rare cases, the search for a monogenic disease is warranted. In this report, we present a patient with classical homocystinuria, where the diagnosis was delayed due to various factors. The patient experienced a constellation of symptoms over an extended period, including visual problems, recurrent thrombosis, and neurodevelopmental delay. Delayed diagnosis of genetic diseases is problematic, as patients may grow from pediatric care to adult internal medicine, where knowledge and exposure to such a rare genetic disorder are limited. A diagnosis was finally confirmed with amino acid profiling, revealing extremely elevated homocysteine levels, which were reduced with sequential treatment modalities, including folate, vitamin B12, vitamin B6, methionine restriction, and betaine. We also present derangements in other amino acids, namely, methionine, taurine, serine, and urea cycle products. With treatment, a progressive increase in body weight is noticed. Furthermore, we present a novel finding of increased levels of ß-aminoisobutyric acid with homocysteine-lowering treatment. ß-aminisobutyric acid is a myokine that potentiates some of the metabolic benefits of exercising muscle such as improved insulin resistance and browning of white adipose tissue.
