Case Report: Hallervorden–Spatz Syndrome with Seizures
Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome is a disorder characterized by dystonia, parkinsonism, and iron accumulation in the brain. The disease is caused by mutations in gene encoding pantothenate kinase 2 (PANK2) and patients have pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration. We present an 8-year-old boy with progressive muscle dystonia, neuroregression, frequent fall and multiple injur...
متن کاملChildhood Laryngeal Dystonia Following Bilateral Globus Pallidus Abnormality: A Case Study and Review of Literature
Introduction:Dystonia is a disorder of movement caused by various etiologies. Laryngeal dystonia is caused by the spasm of laryngeal muscles. It is a disorder caused by vocal fold movement in which excessive adduction or abduction of the vocal folds occurs during speech. The pathophysiology of this type of dystonia is not fully known. Some researchers have suggested that basal ganglia structure...
متن کاملGenetic, clinical, and radiographic delineation of Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome.
BACKGROUND Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by dystonia, parkinsonism, and iron accumulation in the brain. Many patients with this disease have mutations in the gene encoding pantothenate kinase 2 (PANK2); these patients are said to have pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration. In this study, we compared the clinical and radiographic features...
متن کاملAn overview of Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA) syndromes and the disease status in Iranian population: review article
Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA) is a rare set of inherited neurodegenerative disorders with abnormal accumulation of iron in basal ganglia. It is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disorder that is characterized by movement disorders, dystonia, dysarthria, Parkinsonism, intellectual disability, and spasticity. The age at onset varies from childhood to adulthood and...
متن کاملA Novel Nonsense mutation in PANK2 Gene in Two Patients with Pantothenate Kinase-Associated Neurodegeneration
Pantothenate kinase- associated neurodegeneration (PKAN) syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by progressive extrapyramidal dysfunction and iron accumulation in the brain and axonal spheroids in the central nervous system. It has been shown that the disorder is caused by mutations in PANK2 gene which codes for a mitochondrial enzyme participating in coenzyme A biosynthe...
