Inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs), previously considered as a paediatric sub-specialisation are more and more prevalent in adults, thanks to improved survival, and the expansion of diagnostic tools detecting attenuated–late onset forms in adulthood. Italy is one of the countries with the highest number of IMDs screened by dry blood spots in neonates, allowing them to receive early treatments and to reach adult age. Despite this, awareness of IMDs is still low by the adult medical community, with difficulties in transition and transfer of patients to adult services and unmet patient needs. In 2022, a collaboration between the adult metabolic working group of the Italian Society for the Study of Inherited Metabolic Disorders and Neonatal Screening (SIMMESN) and the European Reference Network for Hereditary Metabolic Disorders (MetabERN) was established to face problems linked to IMDs in adulthood. “The Statement of Udine” was developed to guide further steps towards improvements in inherited metabolic medicine in adults, referencing the experience from the UK. The aim of this paper is to present “The Statement of Udine” explaining its background and its possible applications.
