Study Design: Cross sectional study Place and Duration of Study: MH Rawalpindi, from June 2015 till June 2016. Material and Methods: 64 children diagnosed with metabolic disorders, reporting to the MH Rawalpindi, were enrolled in the study. History was taken with special reference to family history, consanguineous marriage, sibling’s death and clinical manifestations. Thorough physical examination was done in every patient to find out the clinical signs present. All the data was recorded on a proforma. SPSS-20 version was used to derive the results and p-value of <0.05 was taken as statistically significant. Results: In children with metabolic disorders, gastrointestinal manifestations were more significant 78·1% (p-value 0.022). Neurological signs were present in 60·9% (p-value 0.094) while respiratory manifestations were present in 15·6% children (p-value 0.251). 53·1% were males and 46·9% were females. The positive history of other affected children in family was significant (p-value 0.015), along with hypoglycaemia (p-value 0.001).
