Mitochondrial trifunctional protein (MTP) and long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (LCHAD) deficiencies have been a part of the Slovenian newborn screening (NBS) program since 2018. We describe a case of early lethal presentation of MTPD/LCHADD in a term newborn. The girl was born after an uneventful pregnancy and delivery, and she was discharged home at the age of 3 days, appearing well. At the age of 4 days, she was found without signs of life. Resuscitation was not successful. The NBS test performed using tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) showed a positive screen for MTPD/LCHADD. Genetic analysis performed on a dried blood spot (DBS) sample identified two heterozygous variants in the
