SPASTIC PARAPLEGIA-OPTIC ATROPHY-NEUROPATHY SYNDROME

Alternate names

SPASTIC PARAPLEGIA-OPTIC ATROPHY-NEUROPATHY SYNDROME Is also known as spoan, spg68, autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia type 68

Description

Spastic paraplegia-optic atrophy-neuropathy (SPOAN) syndrome is a rare, complex type of hereditary spastic paraplegia characterized by early-onset progressive spastic paraplegia presenting in infancy, associated with optic atrophy, fixation nystagmus, polyneuropathy occurring in late childhood/early adolescence leading to severe motor disability and progressive joint contractures and scoliosis. SPOAN syndrome is caused by mutations in the KLC2 gene (11q13.1), encoding kinesin light chain 2.

Most common symptoms of SPASTIC PARAPLEGIA-OPTIC ATROPHY-NEUROPATHY SYNDROME

  • Global developmental delay
  • Scoliosis
  • Ataxia
  • Nystagmus
  • Pain
