AUTOSOMAL DOMINANT SPASTIC PARAPLEGIA TYPE 10

Alternate names

AUTOSOMAL DOMINANT SPASTIC PARAPLEGIA TYPE 10 Is also known as spastic paraplegia 10 with or without peripheral neuropathy, spg10

Description

Autosomal dominant spastic paraplegia type 10 (SPG10) is a rare type of hereditary spastic paraplegia that can present as either a pure form of spastic paraplegia with lower limb spasticity, hyperreflexia and extensor plantar responses, presenting in childhood or adolescence, or as a complex phenotype associated with additional manifestations including peripheral neuropathy with upper limb amyotrophy, moderate intellectual disability and parkinsonism. Deafness and retinitis pigmentosa were reported in one case.

Most common symptoms of AUTOSOMAL DOMINANT SPASTIC PARAPLEGIA TYPE 10

  • Intellectual disability
  • Hearing impairment
  • Scoliosis
  • Ataxia
  • Spasticity

MYOCLONUS, INTRACTABLE, NEONATAL; NEIMY

Description

Neonatal intractable myoclonus is a severe neurologic disorder characterized by the onset of intractable myoclonic seizures soon after birth. Affected infants have intermittent apnea, abnormal eye movements, pallor of the optic nerve, and lack of developmental progress. Brain imaging shows a progressive leukoencephalopathy. Some patients may die in infancy. There is phenotypic and biochemical evidence of mitochondrial dysfunction (summary by Duis et al., 2016).

Most common symptoms of MYOCLONUS, INTRACTABLE, NEONATAL; NEIMY

  • Seizures
  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Hearing impairment
  • Microcephaly
  • Nystagmus

AUTOSOMAL DOMINANT CHARCOT-MARIE-TOOTH DISEASE TYPE 2 DUE TO KIF5A MUTATION

Alternate names

AUTOSOMAL DOMINANT CHARCOT-MARIE-TOOTH DISEASE TYPE 2 DUE TO KIF5A MUTATION Is also known as cmt2 due to kif5a mutation

Description

Autosomal dominant Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2 due to KIF5A mutation is a rare form of axonal peripheral sensorimotor neuropathy characterized by classical CMT2 signs and symptoms (progressive weakness and atrophy of distal limb muscles, mild sensory deficits of position, vibration and pain/temperature, pes cavus, and symmetrically absent or reduced muscle and sensory action potentials with relatively preserved nerve conduction velocities in neurophysiological studies) as well as pyramidal tract involvement (spasticity, hyperreflexia). Spasticity and pain may be the presenting symptoms.
