A normal infant was born to a 25 year-old mother with phenylketonuria who had never been treated. The mother had been fed a phenylalanine restricted diet for 3 months before the beginning of the pregnancy. Dietary control was maintained throughout the whole gestation. The problems of dietary control in a mentally retarded woman are analysed.
